When you stated that you were Catholic, it made this statement a little clearer;
"let us pray so that our brethren may be resurrected into the kingdom of heaven."
If you are going to pray for anyone to get to Heaven, do it before they pass away. If a person does not have Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior before death, they probably aren't going up. Jesus is the only way. Purgatory isn't in the Bible.
As you get more through the Bible you will find that on the last day, Jesus will
resurrect those individuals that the Father has given Him. John chapter 6.
