A life too short, but God is in charge.

Our hearts are heavy.  Lost a dear friend yesterday at 4pm.  He found out he had stage 4 cancer last February....we went thru the last four months with him and his family with chemo and radiation.....and saw him failing.  We prayed for a healing we know the Lord can...He has....but the Lord took our friend home.  We know where he is....he knew where he was going being a strong believer, and accepting Christ as his Savior....it's still sad.  Our precious friend leaves a wife and three children behind.  He was only 50...just turned 50.  We will miss you dear friend.  We will miss you calling...with your silly jokes...your laugh.  We know your grieving family will miss you.  We will visit them...and take your son fishing.  We will see you again.....we will all be free from these shells.....free....

I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. I am sure it meant a lot to him to know his family has such loyal and true friends to look after and love them. So happy to hear he knew the Lord Jesus as his personal Savior and that one day you will all be together again.
