Corliss D. Gilchrist

I did not have the pleasure to know Mr. Gilchrist in his lifetime, but read his obituary in the news, and it really moved me. He was a great example of the hard-working Americans who are too often mocked because we choose to live with compassion (for both humans and other species), and by the true meaning of the Golden Rule, and choose our leaders with those same qualities. I understand what it means to have to reach a little into the future when granting your loved one "permission" to pass, I had to tell my own mother something I thought was not true, but turned out to be on its way, so she would stop clinging on to her suffering. My condolences to the family, friends, and community that will greatly miss Mr. Gilchrist.

It hasn't happened yet, but I am still waiting. Glad you will now rest in peace thinking it was already happening...!

RIP brother. Hopefully your wish will be granted soon.

God bless the family, may your father, grandfather rest now, and however, you put it he's at peace now

I have taken the liberty of adding his obit to my blog, http://ninalentinislifewithoutend.blogspot.com/, where he is among good company. My SIL in Des Moines sent me the obit. Condolences to all.
