Produktbeschreibung

Let Them Be Not Forgotten is a book of funeral eulogies and meditations collected over forty years of ministry by the author. It is intended to keep alive the memories of some of those he has helped bury. For the Christian, the grave represents not only the end of life on earth, but also the first step into a new existence. This book is designed to help the living maintain Communion with those Saints that have gone before them. It may also be of interest to genealogists and others who find it enlightening and edifying to study the past lives of their ancestors and predecessors. The book not only illuminates the lives of those profiled, but weighs the heft of their character, the breadth of their contribution to their community, and the spirituality of their souls.
