Carl, I’m so sorry to hear of the passing of your dad. He sounded and looked like a man any son would be proud of to call, “Dad”. Our prayers of comfort are with you and your family. Another saint has come home to the Lord!

Carl – I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your Dad. My own Dad passed into Glory just over a year ago. He too was a musician (violin), 87 years old, and a devout follower of Jesus. He kept saying “I’ve got a reservation at the table up there!”. I wrote the following in tribute to him, and had the privilege of singing it at his funeral. I hope this touches your heart. as you have touched ours. In Christ – bruce lindemann
“Hands”
O the hands that played so well,
Wielding bow and string and rosin,
Sculpting melodies so rich,
Carried through the air on wings of love.

O the hands that once held mine,
Gentle strength mixed with compassion.
Hands that pointed to The Way,
Holding steady through the stormy night.

O the hands that now lie still,
Resting gently on his breast,
O those hands yet reach again,
Reach to hold Eternal Hands of grace.

And now my hands are much the same,
Coaxing strings to sing with passion.
Holding those much younger still,
Pointing upward towards the Hands of Life.

Yet these hands are frail as well,
And one day they too will rest.
Then these hands will reach again,
Reach to hold Eternal Hands of grace.

O the Hands, my Master’s Hands,
Hands engraved with all our pardon,
Hands that formed us from the clay,
Hands that hold us close when we are weak.

O those Hands will carry us,
Though the storms of life will rage.
And those Hands will bring us through,
And gently lift us up to Heaven’s rest.

Bruce and Bev Lindemann, October 2010

Continued prayers for you and your family. I know of your concern for your dad’s health over the last few years and now as you say, he’s experiencing music like he never imagined. How cool is that?
My dad is coming to the end of his battle with stomach and liver cancer and I pray he looks forward to heaven in the same way.
