I’m so sorry for the loss of your mom.
Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace. May her soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
And May God comfort you and your family, and wipe every tear from their eyes, till you all meet again in Heaven. Amen.
Holy Mary and St Joseph, please intercede. 🙏
My MIL died of Alzheimer’s in her 80s.
My mom also died at 89 although she had a different ailment.
Wishing you peace at this difficult time.

I am going to a funeral Mass for my mother on Wednesday, I will add your mother to my prayers during it. If anyone else would like me to add a prayer please let me know and I will light a candle during it for them in the Church.
O God of spirits and of all flesh, Who hast trampled down death and overthrown the Devil, and given life to Thy world, do Thou, the same Lord, give rest to the souls of Thy departed servants in a place of brightness, a place of refreshment, a place of repose, where all sickness, sighing, and sorrow have fled away. Pardon every transgression which they have committed, whether by word or deed or thought. For Thou art a good God and lovest mankind; because there is no man who lives yet does not sin, for Thou only art without sin, Thy righteousness is to all eternity, and Thy word is truth.
For Thou are the Resurrection, the Life, and the Repose of Thy servants who have fallen asleep, O Christ our God, and unto Thee we ascribe glory, together with Thy Father, who is from everlasting, and Thine all-holy, good, and life-creating Spirit, now and ever unto ages of ages. Amen.

In sympathy for the loss of your mother I pray:
Merciful Father and God of all consolation grant mercy on the soul(s) of these loved ones whom you have called home to Yourself.
Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ you are the Resurrection and the Life. We place all our hope and trust in You and Your promise of eternal life.
Holy Spirit bring Your comfort and peace to those who remain in sadness to mourn the loss of their beloved family members.
Blessed Trinity, bring these loved ones and all the faithful departed into Your presence in the company of the saints. Mercifully grant them Your rest and joy.
Through the intercession of Mary, may we all one day be reunited in the complete bliss of the Beatific Vision. Amen.

Hey Guvnor I can always use a prayer, but please do not spend money on lighting a candle. Just say one for me and mine. TY

Prayers gladly offered. Any prayer you'd prefer - I think to like the Magnificat myself if no one has any objection to that.

I'm very sorry for the loss of your mother. May our Father welcome her in heaven where she may serve forever. May your family be comforted knowing your mother is in heaven with our Father. In your name, Jesus amen!

Having popped down to my own mum's grave for the first time in a year today I said a prayer for the OP here and for Bear. Took me a good half-hour digging up weeds and pushing away leaf-litter as well. I was so busy with academic work and working full time it proved impossible last year to get time to go there and when I go I take my father so long as he is capable of making the journey. I noticed two of the graves near my mother's had collapsed sine last year as she is buried in the old section of the cemetery and some of those graves are getting on for two centuries old now.
