I'm praying for the Wirthlin family with the passing of their Daddy and Grandpa. No matter how old a man is, death is never welcome. Even if those who love him must watch him suffer and waste away before he is released from the earthly tabernacle of clay, still we want to save ourselves from the pain of separation from those we love and hold dear. I know I prayed many times for my own Daddy to go on living. Only after I saw how he suffered was I able to give up my selfishness long enough to pray for his release from suffering. This photo was a Thanksgiving at Wayne's and Adeline's in St. George Utah. Dad is in the blue shirt next to Teri who is in the print shirt. I believe it was 1972 or 1973...
