Some may live fewer years and some may live longer. Nevertheless, 70-80 years is generally the length of life for mankind, and in eternal terms, it’s a very short time indeed. Therefore, we must live with an appreciation for the eternal consequences of how we live and give God all the glory, when we are blessed beyond three scores and ten. Today and forver, we will remember the beautiful spirit of the late Florrie Samuels.
