Poet Eulogy written by Pastor Andy Cass
"On March 1, 2020 my good friends fear and untruth were laid to rest.
We had great times together. We had many moments of victory, cheer, and happiness in exchange of honor. You two have been my lifelong companions. You’ve never left my side. But today I said goodbye. Goodbye to the moment. Goodbye to small victories. Goodbye to the temptations. I’ve learned a lot from you, but as I part I look to the way, truth, and life. His name is Jesus, and he will guide me from here. I will now exchange those small moments, for memories of breakthrough. I was exchange small victories for winning the war of love. I will Exchange. Temptations for truth telling. I will Exchange “My way” for the “Best way." I’m going to admit to my sin and refuse to submit to my sinister nature. This will not be easy, but it will be worth it. Oh Mr. Liar rest in peace."
