Thanks for all the prayers for my Father in Law and family. As most of you know he passed away peacefully Monday evening. He had been really sick for awhile. I know it sounds horrible to say but when I prayed I asked Jesus to take him home. I am at peace knowing he is not suffering anymore. It was a beautiful funeral service celebrating his long full life. He was retired Military and a retired Fire Chief. The Fire Dept Chaplin preached his funeral . Jacksonville Sheriff's Office did a Police escort from the funeral home to the Cemetery with a Fire Rescue ambulance leading the way. Once at the cemetery we were greeted by 2 fire trucks and a full Military funeral. It was very touching and honoring. My Hunter couldn't take his eyes off the 21 gun salute. How proud we all are of having the honor of knowing Clarence Gordon Hayes. Mr. Hayes was 86 years young and had been married to Scott's Mom for 63 years. Wow. Please remember Mrs. Hayes in your prayers because the days ahead alone will really be trying for her.
I hope to soon bring her to the farm and to church and show her our new home.
Thanks again for the prayers...
Blessing.
Sherry

Glad to see you're home. We missed you all.
What an honorable life. Talked to my uncle this week and it sounds like everyone at HDBC is praying for ya'll.
Thank you. My friend Beverly Ziza from HDBC came to the viewing. It was so nice to see her.
