Death: Planned and Stunned

This is not a full post but one to prepare for Monday's offering. I will attempt to write something about the school shooting in Connecticut yesterday. Just know that at the same time our friends were reeling with the news of a death of a friend in our church who's wake and funeral were/are last evening and this morning, respectively. In the midst of this the police called on me at home to inform me of a close friend's death here in town. It was a suicide, a release from a horrible terminal disease. He made me the executor of his estate so there is much to do in the short term and long.

As we age death is ever more present in life. It is a natural part of our journey. It means different things to each of us but has an impact on our present and future no matter the circumstances.

More on all of this later. Much to think about.
