"Happy Anniversary"

Linda and I recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary this past June, and Linda celebrates her 4th anniversary of smoking cessation on August 10th. These are times of joy and triumph.

When we think of “Happy Anniversary” we often think of those times of joy and celebration, but not the death of a loved one.
As Christians, however, we can try to cut through our loss and sorrow that death brings to our hearts, and find cause for celebration.
Adam is now with the very Christ we all hope to see one day. He is at eternal rest in Jesus' ‘Everlasting Arms’.

August 4th marks a sad but triumphant day for us. We agonize at the loss of Adam’s presence with us, his life with us.
But we celebrate his entrance into the eternal glories of God and the peaceful rest Heaven has rewarded him with.



And so, this August 4th it is with tear-filled hearts we say…


“Happy Anniversary Adam. We miss you and we hope to see you again, soon.”
