St. Vincent Pallotti High School Class of 1983

12/05/2024

Please keep Ann Flores and her family in your thoughts and prayers. We are sharing a beautiful and heartfelt post that Ann shared on 12/4.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Yesterday, my wonderful, selfless Mom was released from all pain, depression & anxiety. She is the bravest & strongest person I know by choosing when to transition and when to actively die. She passed away on her own terms and she knew I’d back her up all the way. Once she made the decision to enter hospice, it opened up more options so she could stop fighting to stay alive and, instead, focus on a glorious reunion with my father, her parents, and the scores of friends and family who passed before her.
Pop always called her his angel. Fr. Lockman called her an archangel. They were right.

She is most definitely in heaven. She is finally at sweet, glorious peace.

Comfort care is brutal. But she chose Patti Flores & me to be the ones to help her through this. It was an honor, privilege, and the hardest most sacred work I’ve ever done.

Please keep Joe Sheppard and his family in your thoughts and prayers. His mother passed away suddenly last week after a tragic accident.

Here is the obituary and arrangements:

Share memories & support the family
