It is with sadness to hear of the passing of Brother Guy E. Olson, our condolences go out to his family and all that are grieved by his passing. May we offer the following in eulogy:

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon,
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; to be understood, as to understand, to be loved, as to love. For it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

In His Faithfulness,
Richard F. Rekash, P.E.C.
