Celebration of Life

This post is for my BIG brother Mike.  He recently lost his dad unexpectedly (we share the same mother but have a different dad).   I was asked to take some pictures at the grave site of different things so I figured this would be the best way for his family to view them.

Mike's dad Randy was a veteran who loved serving his country.

He was given a 21 gun saluate and his family had an amazing vault designed for him.

Something about an American Flag @ a funeral will always give me goose bumps!

As death always seems so dark, I find great peace in knowing that there is a merciful God!  It's comforting to know that there is a far better place then where we are now!

Look at these fine gentlemen!

Always proud of our men and women that serve our country.

The folding of the American flag.

The vault was amazing!

I love the eagle design on the sides of the casket.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18

¹⁶ That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. ¹⁷ For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! ¹⁸ So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.
