IN
MEMORY
"The Lord is my
shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in
green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my
soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's
sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your
staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the
presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup
overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the
days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."
Psalm 23
