A door swings briefly open and a loved, one slips away. Slips, smiling, from life’s shadows into life eternal. Where earthly, grief is forgotten, where pain shall be no more. To peace, past understanding, God has opened wide the door.
Written by Clata B. Taylor in memory of her uncle Nelson A. Maynard, who passed to his reward July 3rd, 1936, after long life of faithfullness to his church, the community, and to his family
