“The memory of the righteous is a blessing.” Proverbs 10:7a
This was my Papaw, Clair Smith, on his wedding day. He died last night. I love him so much and already miss him, but I’m very happy he is at rest. In Christ, mourning is not the same as it is for those with no hope. Still it’s hard, as I’m sure you know. He is a very, very dear man. A beautiful man, my Papaw.
I’ll say more of him another time.
Thank you, friends, for your prayers. I won’t be posting for a little while. God bless you.

When you posted about him on FB, I didn’t realize that he had just passed away shortly before. My condolences, Sam. May God uphold you and strengthen you and yours.
