Condolences for Bruce Arthur Card
Sherman and Evan,
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
To the Family, so sorry for your loss. Hope you will be comforted in knowing that Bruce has the prospect of being resurrected, healthy (in the flesh), to Paradise Earth just as Jehovah God has promised. In fact , the vast majority will enjoy everlasting life right here on earth as God had intended from the beginning. God’s Kingdom will do this under the rule of Jesus Christ. READ John 5:28, 29, Job 14:14, 15,Psalms 37:29,Matthew 6:9,10, Matthew 5:5 and Revelation 21:2-4
I am so sorry to hear about Bruce. He was a very kind man. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. RIP Bruce
Carolyn and Dad, our hearts are with you during this time of loss.
Where Sand Meets Sky
In mournful tune that shines the sand
where once we walked both hand in hand
eyes water as I say goodbye,
where sky meets sand and sand meets sky.
As waves roll in to suds the shore
your lilting laugh is heard no more.
The sea breathes out its subtle sigh
where sky meets sand and sand meets sky.
Oh how I miss your perfect face
that smiled with joy and beauty's grace,
now blended with the tears I cry
where sky meets sand and sand meets sky.
With wishes yet for you with me
my heart knows I must set you free;
release my anguished questions why
where sky meets sand and sand meets sky.
And somewhere midst the setting sun
heart feels your spirit soar as one
with heaven’s angels as you fly
where sky meets sand and sand meets sky.
