Funeral services for Deacon Julius Starks, February 10, 1968, 4:00 p.m., Tabernacle Baptist Church, [Augusta, Georgia], Rev. C. S. Hamilton, officiating

The Meaning Of Death
We are so stupid about death. We will not learn. How it is wages paid to those who earn, How it is gifts for which on earth we yearn. To be set free from bondage to the flesh; How it is turning seed-corn into grain, How it is winning heaven's eternal gain, How it means freedom ever more from pain. How it untangles every mortal mesh. We are so selfish about death; we count our grief Far more than we consider their relief Whom the great Reaper gathers in the sheaf No more to know the season's constant change; And we forget that it means only life.
W illiam C. Doane
