I believe that we are here until we fulfill the mission God has given us. That is UNLESS we become a victim of an accident or a war.

Jack, what a great long life! Life is any age. We trust God to determine what is best. I had a niece that lived only several months. An enlarged heart took her suddenly! We must all lean on the everlasting arms. Amen.
