he's home

"...It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son." ~Revelations 21:6-7~

Last night Dad went to be with the Lord...at about 9:10 pm Dad took his last peaceful breathe with mom, all of his kids & spouses & Uncle Butch holding his hand while shedding our tears of joy & sadness.

Your prayers have meant so much to us the last several days, weeks, and months...bless all of you for thinking of us.

We covet the memories we have with Dad & ask in the next several days you continue to pray for strength for our dear Mom, us kids, and the many relatives and friends...

victory has been won!

Golden

A golden heart, a golden life and now a golden scene ~ when I look back at Dad’s life, golden is what he means.

A golden car is what he drove as he whisked my Mom away ~ that Roadrunner climbed up the mountains & Mom was here to stay.

After a few purchases, a yellow truck is what Dad found ~ many a folk noticed Dad ~ his golden cab shown for miles around.

Doing to others as you want returned was often spoken here ~ the golden rule was always preached & to my Dad was dear.

My mom caught the golden fever & after 40 years ~ her laundry room now brightly shines golden through it’s mirrors.

Yellow is the color of courage: bright, brave & strong ~ one who knows, accepts & fights whatever life brings along.

And now my golden Dad has one more golden date ~ as he chose earlier in life to make Jesus Christ an eternal mate.

The golden rule, golden truck, laundry room & car ~ can all sit back & watch ~ streets of gold are greeting Dad from a far.
