I chose purple because it was so rare and valuable (like Terri) after it was first discovered and became the symbol of royalty. And it was also one of Terri's most favorite colors. The most important thing Terri and I shared is our Catholic Faith.

In lighting a candle we partake in the powerful life-giving force of Jesus’ words (John 8:12):

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

And we are asking that our prayers rise up to heaven and that Our Blessed Mother may always intercede for us before our Savior, Jesus.
