Always A Tiger!

Yesterday afternoon My 97 year old Father-in-Law passed away! He was a proud graduate of Clemson A&M College, Class of 1943! I hate to admit it but I was raised as a South Carolina Fan. I married His Daughter in 1968. He missed Homecoming that year for our wedding. I think He finally forgave me last year. After we married, we attended most Clemson Football games. There was never any pressure but I saw the light and converted. I have been a Member of IPTAY for 45 years or so. The last thing He asked me to do was write in His little notebook the times and channels for the Duke and South Carolina games. When making the arrangements for His Funeral, we decided not to have it Saturday. Saturday's are for Gameday! His Funeral will be Monday and Yes he will be buried in Orange! He will not be watching but there is nothing He would want more that one more win. Say a Prayer for Us and Go Tigers!

John 14:1-6 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. 2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.” 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Prayers for your family. It sounds like your father-in-Law was a true Clemson man. Hang in to those precious memories and as time heals it will be fun to revisit some of the places and things he loved so much
