?"The final estimate of men shows that history cares not an iota for the rank or title a man has borne, or the office he has held, but only the quality of his deeds and the character of his mind and heart." ~ Samuel Brengle

Larry was my dad. We buried him today in Harrison, AR in Maplewood Cemetery. I saw this quote on Facebook and thought how appropriate it was. When all is said and done, it's only your character and deeds that remain as a memorial and comfort to your family. I'll miss you dad, and will see you again in heaven. I know you're enjoying your new dwelling place that Christ has prepared for you. I love you!
