Quote:

"One way or another, he's at peace. There's only Heaven or peaceful nothingness. That's what I think." RIP, Gramps. I love you forever.
Quote:

I'm so sorry for the harm he caused. That we all caused. But he could be so kind and wonderful. I wish you all could have seen that, too.
Quote:

I understand those who don't mourn his loss, but I'm thankful for those who see that "An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind."
Quote:

Love and peace to all. The world needs more of both. That's the part of Gramps I'll keep and share with others.

From the news I read, there will be no funeral. Apparently they want to avoid someone doing to them what they've done to countless others.

Jesus said, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.... guess they intend to make sure what happens to them is not what they dished out to others.

At any rate, I pray for healing and God's mercy on this family, and church. It is a sad thing to have such bitter hate in your heart.
