Be Still My Soul
On Monday, November 3rd, around 3 a.m., my father peacefully passed from this earth. As a man of faith, he believed in the biblical promise of eternal life in God’s kingdom. For the past 15 months Dad was mostly relegated to his bed or recliner due to his declining health and as my sister and I lived only 10 minutes from his assisted living facility, we were able to be his daily companions through his remaining life journey.
You might think being being mostly confined to a small apartment would be depressing, but we had purchased for Dad a 65” smart TV and with YouTube we explored with awe the wonders of God’s creation . . .

Last weekend my father and I watched an emotional movie titled “Taking Chance”, the true story of Lt. Col. Michael Strobl, a voluntary military escort, who accompanies the body of 19 year old Marine Chance Phelps back to his hometown of Dubois, WY . . .
