I just got a call from my best friend and roommate Matt.
His father passed away sometime tonight.
I don’t have any details, Matt didn’t know anything when he called, other than that Tom (his dad) was found in his truck sometime this evening, already gone to glory.
As you may recall, Matt’s fiance, my sister passed away March 21, last year. So this is a huge blow to his family and mine.
Tom leaves behind his wife Sue.
As well as sons Paul of Dallas, Tim and wife Amber of Rowlett, Aaron and wife Keri of Cedar Hill and Matt of Waxahachie. He also leaves behind six grandchildren and one grandson.
Please pray urgently for the Lehmann family and our family.

I’m trying hard not to think you unkind
But Heavenly Father If you know my heart
Surely you can read my mind
Good people underneath the sea of grief
Some get up and walk away
Some will find ultimate reliefHome Free, eventually
At the ultimate healing we will be
Home Free Home Free, oh I’ve got a feeling
At the ultimate healing
We will be Home FreeOut in the corridors we pray for life
A mother for her baby, A husband for his wife
Sometimes the good die young
It’s sad but true
And while we pray for one more heartbeat
The real comfort is with youYou know pain has little mercy
And suffering’s no respecter of age, of race or position
I know every prayer gets answered
But the hardest one to pray is slow to come
Oh Lord, not mine, but Your will be doneBeautiful Road – Wayne Watson
If I had my way, I must admit
If I called every play of the game
I’d pray for good times, blue ky and sunshine
And I’d avoid with a passion any pain
But with every blow from an engry windAnd with every dark shadow that falls
There’s a better view up around the bend
Where this puzzle makes some sense after allMistakes and misfortunes will come and go
For you to try and still fail is no disgrace
Sometimes a rough and rocky road
Is gonna take you to a beautiful placeIs there anyone out there looking back through you rfaith
That can deny that your Father knows what’s best
Oh but at the time and place for the life of you
You saw no reason, no good for the test
But now remembering as you watched His hand
Put the color to your black and white dreams
Maybe one more time past what you can see
Oh the trouble of the moment ain’t as bad as it seemsSometimes the unspoiled beauty of the wisdom of God
Is lying there in the wilderness
Up there beyond the easy reach
Where the journey takes a little more,
just a little more faith I guess
We got Matt and family…
Love
Thomas
