We memorialize members who have gone before us.  We know that we are walking in their footprints.  We are here to speak their names because they made the way for us and because of the prayers they prayed for us.

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. Psalms 116:15

We die once when the last breath leaves our bodies.  We die a second time when there is no one left to speak our name.  The first death is beyond our control but the second one we can strive to prevent.

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.   2 Timothy 4:7-8
