Funeral Sermon by Reverend Theo Krumery for Dr. John D. Reid November 13, 1962 This occasion is to me full of solemnity and also full of inspiration. It is full of solemnity in that it reminds us that, like Dr. Reid, we shall some day, perhaps not far away, be called to close our office or place of business for the last time, and stand ourselves for final judgement in the supreme court of the universe. It is full of inspiration when I think of the consecration and devotion to the high calling of God upon the life of the doctor. Dr. Reid believed that a man's first allegence wsas to his Creator, and that if a man be true to his God he cannot be false to his brother.

McAllister Sat, Apr 3, 2021 at 12:15 PM To: Rachel Srubas , Mandy Paige , Amiee McDougal , Jen Waddell , Tara McDougal , Jacob Paige , Kimberly Woods , Jennifer James , Cheryl Rennick Hello everyone. I just woke up here in Tucson, having had a pretty amazing dream. In the dream, I was here in our new house, which has a large-ish, open dining room that looks out onto the back yard. As I walked out of the bedroom and into that room, I was pleasantly surprised to discover Rachel and my mom sitting at the dining table talking and drinking coffee. I said good morning to everyone and went into the kitchen to get myself some coffee. Rachel and my mom were just chatting and laughing. When I went back and sat down at the table with them, everything seemed pretty normal--except that I knew that my mom had died. I kept thinking: "This is really strange. I know she's not here, but here she is!" For some reason there was a very small diorama on the table--maybe 18" square--that I apparently had made. It was the kind of quaint little town you might see at a model railroading club. My mom looked at it admiringly and said "Did you make this?" I said yes and she said "Ken! It's beautiful!" She went to pick it up and as she did, we all noticed that there were two "big" pine trees that were pretty wobbly. I said, "I'm not done with it yet. And obviously I have to fix those trees." I reached for the diorama and she handed it to me, smiling. "I really like all the people walking down the street, going about their busy lives," she said. Taking the diorama, I looked at the underside and discovered that the two retaining clips holding the trees in place had come loose. Conveniently--if only real life were as convenient as dreams--I had a small plastic cylinder (almost like a clear
