We are so foolish about death. We will not learn How it is wages paid to those who earn,

How it is a gift for which on earth we yearn To be set free from bondage to the flesh;

How it is winning Heaven's eternal gain, How it means freedom evermore from pain,

How it untangles every mortal mesh . . . We forget that it means only life . . .

Life with all joy, peace , rest, and glory rife, The victory won and ended all strife.

The family of the late Mr. Grady Ingram wishes to express their heartfelt thanks to the many friends who gave of their time and energy during our bereavement. Words are inadequate to express our gratitude. May God continue to richly bless each of you.
