Today at 3:45 Am, God did indeed declare Marc's earthly work complete and his suffering from melanoma over forever as he took him home to his Lord and Savior. Our prayers were answered as we thank God for his wonderful life and praise Him to not allowing Marc to suffer such pain another long night. Please rejoice with us in his homecoming and celebrate Marcus' life and family at the First Christian Reformed Church in Oskaloosa on Tuesday, April 29 at 10:30 AM. A family visitation will be held on Monday at the Bates Funeral Chapel in Oskaloosa from 5 to 7:30 PM. Thank you for sharing in this short yet incredible journey with us. We'll share more memories of Marc and his brave flight from this life in the days to come. For tonight, we KNOW that "by Day the Lord directs his love, at night His song is with me" Psalm 42:8

Dear Judy,
I've had you in my thoughts and prayers throughout these past weeks and I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope to get together with you sometime after the busyness is past. I've enjoyed the times we've spent together so much. I pray that you feel The Father's presence holding you close through this time and times to come. I also pray for your children.
Word's cannot express the sadness I feel for all of you right now. I love you and will keep praying for you.
Your sister in Christ,
Deb
HEAVEN'S SWEETEST GAIN
Now I lay me down to sleep
but for my soul, please do not weep ~
For Earth was ne'er my final choice
God sent for me, I obeyed His voice.
His angels gently closed my eyes
for I was weary, please realize ~
"Sleep now, it's time for you to rest"
I heard God say, "Child, I know what's best"
"Fret not for those who must remain
I'll dry their tears and heal their pain ~
"Very soon I'll cause them to see
you're Home at last in Heav'n with me".
"Your trials have ended now, dear one
each earthly battle has been won ~
there'll be no heartache, pain nor tear
Welcome Home, my child, so dear" !
So please don't weep too long
for me, dear ones we'll be reunited ~
wait & see, rejoicing together on
Heav'n's shore where we'll reside
FOREVERMORE !
May your hearts be somewhat comforted
during this time of deepest pain ~
to know this loss you suffer now
is "HEAVEN'S SWEETEST GAIN" !!!
