I Corinthians 13:4 NKJV love bears all things, love believes all things, love hopes all things, endures all things, and love never fails. We will always love whoever he was to each of us who cared, rather he was Father, husband, grandfather, brother or friend. But more importantly is the complete knowledge that our good father was a child of the Highest King. Our Father ran this race and finished it in the only way that he could by faith. Our father was a loving father and grandfather who because he loved his grand and great-grandchildren, spent the final chapters of this life traveling between the three states of California and Oregon. He even traveled to the states of Virginia and Florida. He would always be remembered for his care free personality and his now famous phrase, "just do it!" And the joy he showed us all when teaching his grand children how to read and count the best way he knew how, with the Webster dictionary, history books, a stack of cards and dominoes. We will always remember his love for history, politics, horse races, and a pack of dominoes. He was so loved by his grandchildren that they called him Daddy often affectionately referring to him as Champ. We once brought him a plaque that said, "Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be called dad." “Remember my spirit, that’s the real me. I’m still very much alive, oh if you could only see! I’ve beheld our Father’s face. I’ve touched my Savior’s hand. The angels all rejoiced as I entered the Promised Land. Beyond the gates of pearl, I walk on golden streets. I’ve touched the walls of jasper, dipped my foot in the crystal sea. The beauty is beyond words, nothing can compare I’ve even seen your mansion; someday I will meet you there. Allow Jesus to be your guide, His word will show you the way and We will meet again someday! "Patsy Stambaugh Deskins" 1cor 9:24 Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.
