Collect for the anniversary of a death

Almighty God, whose memory is longer than time;
we remember especially today your daughter N.
Grant us patience, peace, healing and hope as remember good times and bad;
so that even our grief may become an instrument of your grace.
May light perpetual shine upon N.,
and may we with all your saints come to see your glory; through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
