Just meet me in the morning when your life is through. At the Portals of Glory I'll be waiting for you." Life is like a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Then there is eternity. "Be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near." James 5:8-9 Rose-Neath Funeral Home
