Goodbye to a Great Man

I attended a funeral today for the grandfather of my son-in-law. I didn't know this man, but I was deeply impressed by his life story. He was a true example of service. He flew several dangerous bombing missions during World War II. He worked hard to support his five children. He cared for his wife many years when she was ill. He volunteered at the hospital for 20+ years and went to the temple daily for the last year of his life.

Funerals are always a time for reflection on life and what really matters. The world was made better because this man lived.
