Mike F 10 Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 We laid a beloved Scouter to rest on Saturday. His family was deeply touched by the 300+ Scouts and Scouters who attended in uniform. Even the alter boys were in uniform. After the service, we all lined the path to the hearse and saluted as the pallbearers brought him out for the trip to the cemetery. One of his older sons beamed through his tears, "Yeah -- that's just how dad would have wanted it." Please pray for his family and extended scouting family as we all cope with the loss. -mike Link to post Share on other sites

Fuzzy Bear 12 Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Death gives life a lovely but painful fourth dimension that brings us into focus and explains to us emotionally who we are. Somehow, I think we know him from a distance. FB Link to post Share on other sites
