Memorial Day
~We Remember~
In Loving Memory of those who have served our country
and
To whom are still protecting our freedom.
Esther June Arnold and Brent F. Arnold
USN

Parting
by Esther B. Dunlap*
Once more the portals have opened
In answer to the Master's call.
Again He has claimed a loved one,
A summons that comes to us all.

We feel bereft in the parting
With Loneliness it seem we cannot bear
We forget there is always One present,
Our sorrows He offers to share.

Let us not lean unto our own understanding
But on Him who will do His share
If we but place our hearts in His Keeping,
And rest assured there will be no night there.

*Mother of Esther J. Dunlap Arnold

God Bless
Take a moment to remember the ones you love.
Say Thank you to a member of the Armed Forces
Have a wonderful Memorial Day!
Brent, Sarah and Audrey June
