My aunt, Nona Pierson G786-X59, died on 11-01-2021. She was just 3 weeks short of being 97 years old. Her husband, Normand Joseph Henry Marchand LRQ3-KKQ, died on 12-2015. Because of her advanced age and poor health, Nona was unable to be sealed to him. Nona expressed great joy when, with her permission, my family was able to complete his temple ordinances in June and July 2021. She knew she couldn't be sealed to him and her deceased daughter Charlotte in the flesh but I promised her I would have these sealings done as soon as she passed. I want to fulfill this promise. Can I receive permission to do these sealings before she has been deceased a year? She could not do them herself but her desire is great. All has been in readiness waiting for her death. There was nothing more important to her.
