Life Eternal
This is the will of my Father, that every one who sees
the Son and believes in him should have eternal life;
and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:40 RSV

Our Savior's resurrection
Was God's way of telling men
That in Christ we are eternal
And in Him we live again.

No better way can I tell this than Jack's college friend, Gary Olson, passed away yesterday(Sunday), he wanted so much to die and God has granted his wishes.  Gary had a loving relationship with God and today we can be assured that he has no more pain and is rejoicing with the heavenly realm.


Jack and I have just been on a mini vacation.  We left Thursday afternoon from the school and drove to Bismarck.  We went to Julie's and then the three of us went to eat together.  Afterwards we went to Mark's house and had dessert together and visited.  Dad and I stayed at a motel and Friday Dad took me to spent time with Julie, Anna and Elizabeth,  they are doing a good job.  Dad did get to see his classmate Shirley and did a bit of shopping, he came back and we ate and then left.  We stopped at Jamestown briefly and then at Ellendale to see Shaun, Brenna and Natalie.  From there we went to Janets, Saturday we saw Trey play ball, otherwise we were at their house, helping her with things around the house.  Sunday, Jack and I went to church with Cody and after lunch with them we came on home.  We received word then that Gary had passed away.  His funeral is Thursday morning.
