Richard Pio Cross

Richard Pio Cross was born and passed from this life on September 25, 2023.  He was received and loved deeply by his parents Rich and Theresa, and big sister Vivian Therese.

May his soul and all the souls of the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.  Amen.

Mass of Christian Burial will take place at 10:00 am, Thursday, September 28, 2023 at the Church of the Holy Family in Grand Blanc. Rev. Fr. Joseph Krupp will officiate. A private Rite of Committal and burial will follow at Evergreen Cemetery.

“Pray that God will console you when you feel the burden of the Cross, for in doing so you are in no way acting against the will of God, but you are placing yourself beside the Son of God who asked His Father during the Agony in the Garden to send Him some relief. But if He is not willing to give it be ready to pronounce the same ‘Fiat,’ ‘So be it,’ that Jesus did.”

Quote from St. Padre Pio, whose feast we celebrate on September 23.
