Peggy and I are back from her grandfather's funeral. We decided that there wasn't much point in staying the entire weekend and left a couple of hours after the funeral. He was a very good man who's been suffering with cancer for months. If you'll indulge me for a few sentences.... I hold in high regard anyone, regardless of their faith (ie, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, etc) who can follow that faith 100%. Its something I have a very difficult time doing. Peggy's grandfather, "Doc", was one such man who, as a country physician, had helped countless individuals and practiced medicine in his retirement home to the very end. Very well loved man who had a sincere belief in his God and did his best to help others, even to the point of being taken advantage of. I didn't know him very long, but his death touched me deeply. I think his dying words said it all... "For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith" 2 Timothy, 4:6-7 Can you imagine going out with those words? Hearing it left me speechless. Anyway, I have received numerous messages of condolence from fellow FTE'rs, and rather than attempt to answer them all I'll say here to everyone.... "thank you." I mean it sincerely and it was nice coming home to it. I'll be taking care of FTE administrative items and will catch up by the end of the weekend.
