This past month I have had the privilege of helping to care for a dying friend by spending some overnights with him. The last evening together he asked me to find a piece of paper to take some notes. It was his desire to give me the most important points of his understanding of God and Truth.
I'm looking at that paper filled on both sides with scripture references, definitions of words, web site addresses and assignments (for me to do before our next evening together).
Six days later my friend died from the devastating disease of ALS, also called Lou Gehrig's Disease.
My notes are a reminder of Peter's life long discovery of God and Truth. It is a blessing to be able to carry his message on.
In memory of Peter Burton, August 5, 1952 – October 5, 2012. May you rest in peace.
