As everyone knows, Harold Sandlin has been in the hospital in Birmingham since just before Easter. He passed on July 30 in the wee hours of Thursday morning. Neal and Sondra and Harold's wife Eloise were with him during the night and said he went peacefully. Neal related that shortly before then, he suddenly raised slightly and opened his eyes wide and smiled really big as he was witnessing something amazing. We can only guess what he was privileged to see. Many have been at the bedside of a dying person who knows God and they tell of Angels in the room-I have no doubts about this as my own dad saw Jesus and 'the most beautiful angels all over the room'. We know if our eyes were opened, we would also behold that glimpse of Glory. We who have loved ones on the other side know we have more to look forward to when it is our turn to cross that river.
Thanks to everyone at WCFC who has called or visited or brought food during this time. The viewing is tonight, Friday at 6pm at Miles Funeral Home and the funeral will be Saturday at 11am.
"Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints". Praise God!! We do not have to fear, because of the lover of our souls, King Jesus.
