Between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday sits Saturday where life lives our dash Sweet and sorrowful Saturdays.
Come Saturday this Saturday Sweet Saturday Joy comes bearing gifts You.
You hauling hope telling truth swapping stories passing along wisdom.
You sharing strength standing strong grace with faces The NET: family, friends, angels in disguise.
My lump of grief with yours My speck of faith shared like communion
You like saints wrapped in winter coats halos hidden bringing your finest to this feast of love.

One of the most moving, inspiring services we have ever attended. Jud was honored as well as The Lord lifted up. Your family is amazing... Lilly... Oh my.,," I have not lost him, he is with me forever."
Words that were spoken of Jud:
Trustworthy , comforter, courageous, man of Grace,
Died with humor, calm and grace, felt "at home" in the Scriptures"... Loved his family and lived Gid's love.
Jan, our love and admiration grows without end. We love you and pray that you can get some rest for body and soul. You are surrounded by family and friends that adore and love you and a God that loves holding you. Thank you for sharing Jud with us today, with love ,
See you today!!
Jan:
We who have gone before walk with you and hold your hand. But the One who has gone before all holds you with a sweet embrace that none can break. I love you, Jan. My prayers go with you.
Wish that I could be there to celebrate Jud's life along with you. Sending a big New England hug from North Carolina! Much love to you, Jan!
Driving north with Angels all around. Already prayed together for you and your family. Heard the air will be cold up there, but know the hearts are very warm and full of love! What a plethora of emotions you must be experiencing. xoxo
…..and a multitude of woolen arms will be wrapping around you, like wings of angels.
