Class Memorial Pages/E-1 Earl Gilmore.pdf

My Father was a great Dad , loving Husband to my Mother Norma of 64 yrs. It was his dream at 14 to go to West Point .And in 1957 he got accepted.He always lived his life to the oath he took on the plain at WestPoint- Duty -Honor- Country. He told told his 3 sons to choose the harder right instead of the easier left. He lived his life Loving our Lord Jesus and always lived for Jesus. He Died in Peace with my mother and me and other family members. He will be missed but he now lives with the Long Grey Line.I know that he has a new younger body no longer in pain and sufforring.He lives on with Christ Jesus . Though he is gone in the flesh , he still lives with Jesus and is always with us.
