Heavenly Father,We come before You with heavy hearts,mourning the loss of Charlie,a beloved child of Yours, whose life was taken too soon.Grant him rest in eternal peace,that he may dwell in Your light forever.Comfort those who grieve—his family, friends, all whose lives he touched.Wrap them in Your loving arms,give them strength for today, hope for tomorrow.May Your mercy, O Lord, shine upon Charlie—wash away his sins,make his path straight,and lead him into the fullness of Your glory.We ask this through Christ our Lord,through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary,and all the saints.Amen.
