Obituaries

[Twinky]

From the "honest obit" thread started in this section

I mean look at James Kim memorial

If you look at the Salt Lake Tribune obituaries (lots of Latter Day Saints there) here, there is not a glory to the Mormon Church, but a remembrance of the person.

Extract from the James Kim obit:

"Kim earned his friends' respect by the way he treated people, but many of them revered him for the way he cared for his family."

About which if any leaders (current or in past decade) in TWI could that be written?

[Kit Sober]

there's the story of this mean old drunk who died, and there was a traveling preacher who was doing the funeral, and he was going on and on about how great the guy was, how his wife and children would miss him, and he was gone to heaven to be with the Lord.

"Henry," the man's wife told her son, "Go take a peek and see if it's pa in that coffin."

For some people the only tears shed are alligator tears.

As Excathedra said on another thread

"Thank you for the outpouring of replies."

Well, dang it, Twinky, nothing occurs to me to say on this topic.

It could be written about Ralph D He was/is a great man. IMO I could also say that about Joe Guarini who was a wonderful guy.

I cannot think of any others off hand.

What? Did Ralph D pass away????

[GrouchoMarxJr]

Ralph is fine...

If I could write LCM's obituary, it would say:

_Former Oklahoma State bench warmer and defrocked minister, meanspirited and vindictful. Was handed a multi million dollar cult and ran it into the ground...spent his final years bitter and lonely.

[Kit Sober]

As long as someone is alive, there is hope. Hope for repentance. Hope for a life with the Lord.

:blink:

kit, I understand that with God, all things are possible... but with dyed-in-the-wool Narcissists, some things are not.

[notinKansasanymore]

Hey, I may root for Oklahoma, but I still have to stand up for Oklahoma State. Craig played Elsewhere. Kansas State?

And for the record, I agree with Kit. As long as there is life, there is hope.

Heck, there's probably even still hope for . . . me.

[Son of the Master]

God gives mercy to all who truly repent and change their ways.
