Obituary

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.  A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted: A time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, a time to laugh: A time to mourn, and a time to dance.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-4
