Title: Well we lost another WW2 vet this week.
Post by: Inspector Vol on November 29, 2012, 03:33:54 EST
Mr. Henry Gibson an Army WW2 vet died at the age of 91 this week.  :patriot:  He was an elder at the church where we go now and was my wife's Sunday School teacher at one time.

I didn't really know him personally , just more knew of him, but had for years (he and his brother owned a farm beside us). He was at church every time the doors opened, even this past Sunday and Sunday night, and even though he  was down to walking with 2 canes he never missed and stayed alone (wife had died some years ago) and died that way, but that is how he wanted it. Always had a kind word for everyone.

What a wonderful life of service. I know he's hearing "Well done, thou good and faithful servent".
