Rob and Theresa, While I did not know your father personally, I share your heavy hearts for one thing is a surety, that fathers are precious and I see his reflection in you and the love you hold in your children. A donation has been made to the Covenant House in your names. Time is too slow for those that wait, Too swift for those that fear, Too long for those that grieve, Too short for those who rejoice, But for those who love, time is Eternity. Henry Van Dyke

Rob & Theresa Vivienne and I are sad to learn of the death of Rob's father. Our prayers are with you at his time. We pray that the poem below that looks at death from a different vantage point may provide some consolation. BOB Gone from my Sight I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength and I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come down to mingle with each other. Then, someone at my side says: “There, she’s gone!” Gone where? Gone from my sight – that is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side; and just as able to bear her load of living freight to the place of destination. Her diminished size is in me, not in her; and just at the moment when someone at my side says: “There, she’s gone!”, there are other eyes watching her coming and other voices ready to take up the glad shout – “Here she comes!”. And that is dying.

We are so very sorry to hear about the passing of Jack. May you feel the Lord's grace and peace in the following days. I remember growing up listening to Singend Geloven every week. Jack was certainly a blessing to everyone he came in contact with. Our prayers are with you.

We pray for special strength for you, Leni, and your family, in the coming days. You will have many wonderful memories of Jack. The sparkle in his eyes, the friendly greetings and hugs - those will be missed. He was a gift to the Grace Church commmunity! We are sorry to be missing the funeral, as we are away for the month, but our thoughts will be with you all. May God's love surround you!
