Day is done, Gone the sun,
From the lake, From the hill,
From the sky.
All is well, Safely rest,
God is nigh.
Thanks and praise, For our days,
Neath the sun, Neath the stars,
Neath the sky,
As we go, This we know,
God is nigh.

“My mind still talks to you.
My heart still looks for you.
But my soul know you are at peace.”
Deborah, my condolences to you and the Gilchrist Family. May the moments you shared grant you comfort and peace. God Bless, Vince
Our deepest sympathies to the whole family. We have known Paul and Jonathan since they were children. Although we never had an opportunity to meet the rest of the family, please know that you are all in our prayers. Death is such an enemy.
