Another who fought the good fight, finished the course and kept the faith


I am thinking of the large group of family and friends who are thinking of Cecil Bailey today and celebrating his graduation to his reward. Cecil and my Dad (Manley Jacobs) were LONG TIME friends and another of God's warriors has returned home. They used to encourage each other by telephone and would often comment on who would go first. They stood outside Pansy Bein's funeral making the pact "If you go first, I'll come to your funeral" and "if YOU go first, I'll come to yours!" God blessed them both. I am happy for them, I am still at little sad for us in their absence. I took this photo of Dad and Cecil at the Radville Reunion 2005.
