Mr. Henry Gibson an Army WW2 vet died at the age of 91 this week.    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".
