VIRGINIA FEDERATION OF CHAPTERS MEMORIAL SERVICE April 23, 2013 IN MEMORIAM 2012 “Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting; The soul that rises with us, our life’s star Hath had elsewhere its setting, And cometh from afar; Not in entire forgetfulness, And not in utter nakedness, But trailing clouds of glory do we come From God who is our home.” From “Ode to Intimations of Immortality” William Wordsworth -- 1807 “Life is Real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; Dust thou art, to dust returnest, Was not spoken of the soul.” from “Psalm of Life” Henry Wadsworth Longfellow MEMORIAL SERVICE Invocation Robert Brady VFC Chaplain Opening Remarks Chaplain Brady Memorial Tribute Presentation of Flowers Area Vice Presidents Litany Chaplain Brady Music Closing Prayer “Drifen” by Shirl Jae Atwell Collegiate School Five-Day Strings Helen Coulson, Director Brian Zamecnik, Madelyne Ashworth, Ana Yoo, Jessica Nunn -- Violin Meagan Justice, Emily Erard-Stone – Viola Ezoza Nomazova - Piano Chaplain Brady Memorial Tribute and Presentation of Flowers Area Vice Presidents AREA 1 Patricia A.

Scheig Moment of Silence LITANY • CHAPLAIN: Father, we thank you now as we honor the memory of those whom you gave to us and have taken home. Look with compassion on those who grieve. Grant them the assurance of your eternal goodness, that in them may be fulfilled the promise that those who mourn shall be comforted. • ENTREATY: O God, hear our prayer. Sunset or Sunrise? I sat and watched the sun go down, The red and gold turn ashen gray; And saw the lights come on in town That marked the death of another day. But looking out beyond the strand Of where our sun and day had gone, I saw that in another land The sky was welcoming the dawn. I saw the night close round our friend; The empty years with him away; Then whispered Faith, “Tis not the end, But just the dawning of another day.” From Sagebrush and Lilacs by Milton Mangum, 1974, U. S. Department of Agriculture
