Jeffrey Childers - A Passing Of Light

A friend and co-worker of many where I work, lost her husband very recently. Jeffrey Dewayne Childers, Sr., age 48, of Hoschton, GA, died Friday March 7, 2008 at his residence. To his surviving wife Rose, sons, Jeff and Justin and all relatives, our sincerest condolences and prayers go out to each of you.

Under the shadow of a leafy bough
That leaned toward a singing rivulet,
One pure white stone, whereon, like crown on brow,
The image of the vanished star was set;
And this was graven on the pure white stone
In golden letters--"While he lived he shone."

(Adapted from Jean Ingelow, Star's Monument)
