DES PLAINES, Ill. (WLS) Friends and loved ones said a last goodbye to a mother and her four young daughters who were killed in a fire two weeks ago in Des Plaines.
It was a heartbreaking sight: five white caskets lined up at the front of the Chapel of St. Joseph in Des Plaines Wednesday morning. Te ofrecemos señor este sacrificio por la salvación de nuestras hermanas Cithlaly, Renata, Genesis, Allison y Grace, Archbishop Blase Cupich.
Archbishop Cupich officiated the mass. He said in Spanish that he was called to do so to show the family the entire church is with them in their grief. He presented them with rosaries blessed by the Pope himself.
