WALTER HILL, 111

A Husband, A Father, A Son, A Grandfather, A Friend

If Walter Hill 111, could speak today, we feel that we know what he would say to all his family, church members, and friends. He would quote us John 14:1, "Let not your heart be troubled....Don't worry for I am in HIS hands. God knows me, HE loves me, and HE understands."

God was my refuge and strength, an ever present help in my struggle to survive when I saw darkness. HE was my light. When I saw saddness, HE brought gladness to sight. When I was tired and in despair, eaach breath belabored and painful to take. GOD's strength was there. When there was no laughter, HE brought sweet peace to my soul When there was no longer life, HIS spirit made me whole.

On Sunday night when I knew there was no tomorrow and night filled the air, I said thank you GOD for I know you are there to prepare a better place for me. Let GOD be the refuge for I know that HE cares.
