For your sacrifice, words do little to describe our sincere gratitude. However, There is a hope for a future where such wonderful people will not have to die in the wars of the world. ISAIAH 2:4 And he will certainly render judgment among the nations and set matters straight respecting many nations and set matters straight respecting many peoples. And they will have to beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war anymore....REV 21:3,4-"death will be no more" Wed, 11 Apr 2012 09:42:01 -0700 Steve Burt on April 8, 2010 https://projects.latimes.com/wardead/name/james-p-blecksmith/#c25021 https://projects.latimes.com/wardead/name/james-p-blecksmith/#c25021 Thanks Ed, for updating me on the family.
