The reality that I will not see my brother again is just now sinking in.

now I am not the most religious person in the world - but I am definitely not sure that is the case.

the universe is infinite and time to us fleshly stupid people is not something we can really understand.

you'll meet again. don't know the whys and hows.

but you will.

our time on our little rock in the hinterlands hurtling thru space is really pretty brief, considering.

not sure that helps at all - but just what came to mind.

and that arby's in heaven is getting crowded!!!
It’s method on the edge of madness
It’s a balance on the edge of a knife
It’s a smile on the edge of sadness
It’s a dance on the edge of life

Endlessly rocking.....

I'm terribly sorry to hear this. I'm sure he was a hell of a brother and a great Baylor Bear.

My condolences.

That's rough, Pecos. Definitely praying for you and for him.

I am still in the recovery stage but my girlfriend's father is still in ICU.

My girlfriend is also recovering by the way.

Please keep them in yours, please.

But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep with Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up with them together in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-17

Upholding you all in prayer. Can't begin to imagine. So sorry for your loss.

I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord;
he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live;
and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.

I know that my Redeemer liveth,
and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth;
and though this body be destroyed, yet shall I see God;
whom I shall see for myself and mine eyes shall behold,
and not as a stranger.

For none of us liveth to himself,
and no man dieth to himself.
For if we live, we live unto the Lord.
and if we die, we die unto the Lord.
Whether we live, therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

Into thy hands, O merciful Savior, we commend thy servant
Miles. Acknowledge, we humbly beseech thee, a sheep of thine
own fold, a lamb of thine own flock, a sinner of thine own
redeeming. Receive him into the arms of thy mercy, into the
blessed rest of everlasting peace, and into the glorious
company of the saints in light. Amen. - Book of Common Prayer

My sympathies, Kirby. I always had a great time sharing a frosty adult beverage with you and Miles when you'd accompany Ralph Norvell to one of any number of parties thrown by mutual friends.
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.
