Life Speaks

Today I attended a lovely memorial service for a dear friend's husband.  His well-lived life was evident through every aspect of the service:

• the full house during a holiday weekend
• beautiful music
• articulate, adoring grown children beautifully eulogizing their father
• many instances of his servant leadership
• giving of his talents to numerous nonprofits
• a minister who knew well and respected this special man

It was obvious, as the minister mentioned, that his life consistently spoke the terrific man he was.

How awesome to live a life that speaks amazingly for you when you are present and when you are departed.
