THE BANE OF OLD AGE: Not Memory Loss

DEATH MAY PART FRIENDS, BUT THE FRIENDSHIP LIVES ON FOREVER AS LONG AS ONE FRIEND REMAINS TO REMEMBER
The final words of Thomas Edison, 1847-1931 were "It is very beautiful over there"
The bane of old age is not loss of memory, although that is bad. It is not the loss of physical ability although that is all but certain. The bane of getting older is experiencing the continued loss of family and friends. I have long ago lost the last of my family and now I am losing friends.
While we are mourning the loss of a friend,
others are rejoicing to meet her behind the veil.
Cleo (Birchfield) Lieving was at home, surrounded by her loving family when she passed away on April 11, 2015. She left behind Norman, her husband, and Barker and Linda, her daughters. She had four grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
Cleo and I were the same age and we were both in the Point Pleasant High School class of 1948. I saw Cleo infrequently, only at class reunions, but she was always the same, steadfastly a friend. The world will be poorer for the loss of this wonderful person.
The class of 1948, I think, had 125 graduates. Seventy five have passed away.
Although it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow,
may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow
Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again. Shakespeare
May God comfort the Leiving family.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU
AND YOURS
MAY GOD BLESS THE USA
