Come, my child, God knowns your pain. Dad is gone, but his soul remains. You cannot see him, but his memory is there. God shared him with us so don’t despair. Dad’s time on earth was through. He completed the tasks that he was born to do. He did it so well that God called him home From labor to reward to walk the streets where angels roam. I know he was special and you miss him so, Just know that Dad is in God’s hands above where the streets are paved with gold. So, today we give God thanks for his life and Know that Dad “Gave God Everything” While he “Stood up on his feet rolled up his sleeves and did something”. The family of St. Elder Nathaniel Goode wishes to express sincere gratitude to those who have shown love and concern during this time of bereavement. May God bless each and every one of you!
