“The Final Flight” In Loving Memory of Robert E. “Bobby” Henry Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’m following the path God laid for me. I took his hand when I heard his call, I turned by back and left it all.

MEMORIAL SERVICE Robert E. “Bobby” Henry II May 11, 1965 ~ January 19, 2015

I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work, to play. Tasks left undone must stay that way. I’ve found that peace at the close of the day. If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free.

The 23rd Psalm Farewell Moments The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
