Eulogy

Introduction: John Papa John started off his lecture by giving us a little bit about his background. He is originally from Greece; he is an immigrant and takes pride in it. Him and his mother came to America on a boat with his mother speaking no English. He grew up in Mason City, Iowa where he started kindergarten. He said he failed kindergarten twice, mainly because he didn’t know much English. Childhood: In Mason City he lived with a diverse group of people. His dad owned a grocery store…

Mother, forgive me for making you wait so long for another letter. I fear I am still very tired from the accident with the bridge. Not to worry, though, I am getting better. I must ask you, once again mother, please let me down from the pedestal you have placed me on. While I am flattered by all your more than kind words, I implore you to cease the sweet-talking. I am not worthy of most of your compliments, for no one is truly as perfect as you claim I am. People might think lowly of me if all…

Albert would’ve turned 31 years’ yesterday, but he died 5 years ago. He left our house when he was 18, I was 5 years old. My family never forgave Albert two things: the fact that Albert left the house, and the fact that he died. I live in one of the big Victorian houses near a river. The house has spacious rooms, tall ceilings, and fancy furniture. In the front part of the house there are pines and walnuts, and behind there are my mother roses. My mother cultivates and grows her plants with a…

According to extensive research done careful historians, the bloodshed was very extensive. “Campbell may be referring to the martyrology of Samuel Clarke, written in 1651. Perhaps this figure of 68 million came from Brownlee or somewhere else, possibly the writings of Llorente or Clarks Martyrology, cited above. Such figures sometimes appear in recent books, such as Wilders, but in general, all the figures about the number killed by the Papacy go back many years and have reputable sources. It is…

I grew up in a Christian household so I heard about Jesus but never knew him. I never wanted to get a chance to know him. I would go to church and hear about how great Jesus is and the many things that he can do. When I came here to Fayetteville Christian School in fourth grade, I had no other choice but to learn about Jesus. I didn’t know anything about him and the feeling of sitting in a class while the teacher is talking about someone I didn’t know but heard of was coarse. There I started to…

Jesus when I was born I came here doing for myself. By the time I turned two I decided to kill myself with fly poison but right. I thank you Lord, right now for alerting my parent somehow that I took fly poison. I became the perfect little girl after that incident. I starting taking care of everyone else; I became to go to for everyone in the family thinking that would make them love me a little more. I became angry after been physically abused and always been mentally abused but Jesus you…

To have lived well, laughed often and loved much To have gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children To have filled a niche and accomplished a task To have left the world better and to have appreciated earth’s beauty and not failed to express it To have looked for the best in others and to have given the best of yourself That is achievement. We mourn the passing, celebrate the life and reflect upon the achievements of this amazing woman, Vera Ione Kinney. It is our hope that…

Weeks have past since Jack has been in the hospital, still in recovery. I grew more worried for him each day; unsure why I would be worried about him. He only was hunting in the woods with Anti….it shouldn't be THAT bad. I was home, and it was christmas day. I was sad that Jack was in the hospital on this day, I couldn't visit him, my parents never let me. I sat on the floor at 12 am on a christmas day, my gifts opened on the floor. KNOCK I stood up quickly, and was wondering who would be…

Paying it forward or giving back has always been my motto to live by since I was a teenager. I believe I had picked up this quality from my mother. At an early childhood age, I couldn’t grasp or understood why my mom was so kind to everyone that she encounters on a daily basis and especially strangers. She would even open her door to strangers in order to help them get back onto their feet. She truly believes everybody in the world are related to one another, we all are one big earth family. The…
