Thank you.Rafe wrote: Sun Mar 19, 2023 8:11 am Like Keith, I just saw this. Prayer lifted up. It's an inevitable cycle of life, but it's never easy for friends and loved ones. "The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body."
I haven’t been to the site for a couple of days, so didn’t see your opening post until just a few minutes ago. I prayed right then for God to either heal him or call him home, either way God be praised. And then I read this. It sounds like he was called home…a reason to rejoice even in the midst of the sadness of loss. What an honor it was for you to have had this last time together before he was taken. Traditions like this can’t be bought with money. They require an investment of self. It sounds like you and your friend invested well. My condolences, but I envy the good fortune you have had to have friends like that.puma guy wrote: Sat Mar 18, 2023 6:57 pm My friend passed away this evening. Thank you to those who offered prayers for my friend. I have to believe it is for the best due to the circumstances of his infirmary that would have probably left him with severe mental and physical challenges and is all part of God's plan. I am grateful that just last weekend we were all able to spend a weekend together at our deer camp. Comal county had lifted the burn ban and we had a roaring fire to sit and watch and reminisce on all the years there. I have been there for 29 years and he for 69 years beginning with his family. His ashes will have a place of honor at our camp house.
Thank you.

Thanks. Yes, as it turned out we did.cmgee67 wrote: Sun Mar 19, 2023 4:33 pm I’m very sorry to hear. You had one last great hoorah it sounds like.
