St. Joe, Indiana Obituary Lesson: It was a Beautiful Day [1932]

To day if ye will hear his voice, 

harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. 

Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. 

For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.  Hebrews 3:15/James 4:14

 

Wouldn't we all like for our passing in this life to be like this and at a ripe old age?....but alas, we all won't have our passing like this....
