requiescat in pace

In 2019, the Orlandi family received an anonymous letter saying Emanuela's body might be hidden among the dead in the Teutonic Cemetery just inside the Vatican walls where a statue of an angel holding a book reads "Requiescat in Pace," Latin for "Rest in Peace".

Bunny’s dead now, requiescat in pace, but so long as I live I will never forget a particular interlude of sadism to which he subjected me at the twins’ apartment.

I’ve always liked to think that requiescat in pace is but preface to a longer story.

“Thank you for so many incredible memories. I love you and miss you. Requiescat in pace.”
