They came from Clio, Michigan, and joined Gr...

My friend had been friends with a youth back in the day whose headstone had been knocked over - and...

When we start thinking that we have "arrived", that is when we're most susceptible to become cast (the verb form), like a sheep. "Cast down" is an old...
Another guy flew off from earth to be with wife and kin. He was a good man while down here; Jesus met him, said, "Come in!" While here he knew life was quite short, with no more earth to roam. He'd done great work, loved three daughters, before he hurried 'home'. While here he was a farmer guy, knew irrigation, too. Sold Insurance, and did that well; told folks just what to do. Maybe the finest thing he did was teach folks how to dance. At one Square Dance - he met a girl; he...
