Prayer for Howard's family

Today we celebrate the life of my nephew Howard Hayes, who died last Wed after a brave bout with cancer,
I will do an eulogy for Him. He, like his Dad, brother Marvin died at age of 70. My closing prayer of the eulogy
Lord, we thank you for a life well lived
In receiving, believing and then given without measure
To help others, as we share our most cherished life's treasure
Given by God from heaven above in never ending eternal love.
In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Grandpa, the memories of Howard that you shared yesterday were wonderful. They described him to his fullest. See you Thursday!

Dad, I have to echo Kelsey's comment -- you brought good words to Howard's funeral and helped make it a loving occasion. See you on Thursday. By the way, we got home around 2 am. It was a long drive.
Love, WJ
