Saying goodbye

Today I attended the burial of my good friend's husband. It was a memorable event, fitting for this unique man. He loved Jesus, the Word of God, outdoors; the forest, rocks... We wrote things on rocks and threw them into the grave. His children and grandchildren filled the grave back up with shovel full after shovel full of dirt.. He will be deeply missed, but because of what we Christians commemorate today - the death of Jesus on the cross, and His resurrection, we are saying goodbye just temporarily. Eternity will be awesome!
