From the funeral card
In Loving Memory of
Mrs. Anna Betta
Died April 4th, 1957
O Gentlest Heart of Jesus, ever present in the Blessed Sacrament, ever consumed with burning love for the poor captive souls in Purgatory, have mercy on the soul of Thy departed servant. Be not severe in Thy judgment but let some drops of Thy precious blood fall upon the devouring flames, and do Thou O merciful Saviour send Thy Angels to conduct Thy departed servant to a place of refreshment, light and peace. Amen.
May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
Contributor's notes
This card was photographed together with several others; the transcription is taken from that composite photograph and covers the Anna Betta card only. Below the name the card carries the standard "O Gentlest Heart of Jesus" prayer for the souls in Purgatory. She is likely related to Matteo Betta (died 1950), whose card appears on the same composite sheet.
