Arthur Randolph Jr.

We were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Rev. Randolph. When we spoke with him on Thursday evening before his passing, we could not help but notice how happy and peaceful he was as we spoke. He had a special glow about him as we chatted about retirement, hats, and the church. Please know that the entire Randolph family will be in our prayers, and may the God of peace give you comfort now and in the days to come.

"...to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." [2 Corinthians 5:8]
I will miss your greeting and your smile.

Rev. Randolph lived a wonderful life, living each day to the fullest. May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

A Reminiscence

YES, thou art gone! and never more
Thy sunny smile shall gladden me;
But I may pass the old church door,
And pace the floor that covers thee.

May stand upon the cold, damp stone,
And think that, frozen, lies below
The lightest heart that I have known,
The kindest I shall ever know.

Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast...

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the...

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

May you have the comfort of the Lord in your time of bereavement. I remember Rev. Randolph well. He was a schoolmate of my mother Barbara Battle at Allen University.

Blessings to you,

We are praying for you as you accept the will of God. May He comfort and hold you in the palm of his hand. Remember the good times and cherish
them.

Peace and Blessings,

Ella Scarborough & Family
