bituary
We have come together today at the call of death;
an event that is constantly occuring around us. Death
stares us in the face on all sides. The fields that
were green a few days ago are now "brown. God teaches
in His word all flesh is as grass and all the glory of
man as flowers of grass. The grass withereth and flow-
ers thereof fadeth away.
Most people look upon death as a dark and gloomy
thing without one redeeming quality, "but the death of
the righteous is like the lowering clouds that shut
out the sun at noonday; it has a birght side and a
silver lining. Death to a Christian is moving out of
this cold friendless dark world into eternal daylight.
