WORDS OF COMFORT ~ Reverend Jeff Moffett
-RECESSIONAL
LIFE IS BUT A STOPPING PLACE,
A PAUSE IN WHAT'S TO BE
A RESTING PLACE ALONG THE ROAD
To SWEET ETERNITY.
WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT JOURNEYS,
DIFFERENT PATHS ALONG THE WAY, WE ALL WERE MEANT TO LEARN SOME THINGS, _
: BUT NEVER MEANT TO STAY. OURDESTINATION IS A PLACE
`FAR GREATER THAN WE KNOW, _ _ For SOME, THE JOURNEY'S QUICKER,
For SOME THEJOURNEY'S SLOW. AND WHEN THE JOURNEY FINALLY ENDS,
WEIL CLAIM A GREAT REWARD -- AND FIND AN EVERLASTING PEACE : TOGETHER WITH THE Lorp.
We, the family of Mr. Lee Edwards, would like to express
our deep appreciation for all the many expressions of love --
showered upon us during this time of bereavement. Your
prayers, visits, cards, food, and other acts of kindness have
sustained usimmeasurably.
