A PSALM OF DAVID
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me
TO LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES! He LEADETH ME BESIDE THE STILL
waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of
RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR HIS NAMES SAKE. YEA, THOUGH I WALK THROUGH
THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH, I WILL FEAR NO EVIL! FOR THOU
art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou
PREPAREST A TABLE BEFORE ME IN THE PRESENCE OF MINE ENEMIES!
Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely
GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE!
AND I WILL DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD FOR EVER.
The family of the late John Wesley Neely, III wishes to express
their sincere appreciation for all acts of kindness shown during
their hour of bereavement. May God bless and keep each one
of you in His tender, loving care.
