sad days

Last night around 3am our good friend Arthur passed away. Arthur had been a fixture in our lives, both here in Hazelbrook and also in our choir, Crowd Around, for years now. He was a gentle, kind person who was always on hand when help was needed. He was a better man than I am.

I prayed at his bedside yesterday for God's mercy, and that shortly he might see the very face of God. That prayer has been answered and Arthur is truly in a better place than he was. We may mourn, but he has crossed that river to the Celestial City. God Bless you Arthur. You have earnt this long rest.
