To: The Deacon Robert L. Collier Jr. Family
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. (Matthew 5:4)
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. (Matthew 5:8)
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. (Matthew 25:23)
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. (James 4:14)
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (John 14:26)
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. (Proverbs 3:5,6)
Ruby, Faren, Robert and Jordan keep trusting in the Lord.
His ways is not our ways, and His thoughts is not our thoughts.
Love
Donald and Cynthia Iles

He walked this earth
With joy in his heart
And Jesus as his savior
He still walks this earth

I had the pleasure of working with Robert for a time at NASA. He always had an upbeat attitude and was one of the friendliest people you could hope to meet. I am deeply saddened by his passing. But I know he was deeply close to God and his spirit will reside in Heaven with the Lord.
