A year ago this past May the world lost a good man. A hard working man whose life ended tragically out on a country road. Unforeseen circumstances took the life of a husband, a son, a great friend to many and the father of an unborn son. While the life was taken out of the man, it remained on earth in the hearts of all those who loved him, and continue to love him to this day. He has not been forgotten and he is missed still today, almost 18 months later. ( Legends Never Die - follow this link to read its blog dedicated to Davy and his good friend Cory.)
The legacy of Davy lives on in the lives of all that knew him. After his untimely death his friends gathered around the widow he left behind. The many hands of his many friends in life picked up where Davy left off in life. There was so much to be done, so many loose ends to tie up after Davy was laid to rest. His friends took their many talents and years of experience to stand by his widows side and see her through perhaps the most difficult tasks she would face in the absence of the man who coose her for life, but left her to soon. They sacrificed time with their families to care for their friend Davy's wife and his unborn child They proved their loyalty to her husband by standing strong in her presence while they wept silently in their grief at the loss of a great friend. They were part of carrying on the legacy of their great friend whose departure saddened their souls.,
When Davy's wife gave birth to their son, their only child, they were there to help her celebrate his life, once again, standing strong for his wife, and now for their son as well. They remain a part of this child's life out of respect for their friend. The son that has yet to meet his father, the father that forever forward will watch over his son. The father who will guide his son on earth from heaven above with the help of those still on earth who knew him best.
The Legacy of Davy turns one this year. Almost 18 months after his death, as his son turns one, emotions will once again be stirred up. There will a sadness inside his friends as they continue to watch over the son he's never held, A sadness as they still grieve for the friend they never thought would tragically disappear from their daily lives. A sadness as they celebrate the little life that for one year now has begun to build on the life Davy left behind for him. Of all the gifts a father that would pass before his son was born, the gift of great friends to see him through the years is certainly at the top of the list.
He won't have a father to watch and learn as he grows. He won't have a father to ask questions and offer him advice in life. He won't have a father to teach him to play ball. He won't have a father to ride in a tractor with He won't have a father to teach him to drive. He won't have a father to help him study. He won't have a father ... but he will have his fathers friends ... and because of them ... the legacy of Davy lives, the legend of Davy stays alive.
Father,
God Bless all those that keep Davy's memory alive,
and whatever it is that You know
they may be needing this day.
And may his son Chance's Life be full
of Your Peace, Prosperity and Power as
he grows in life without his daddy on earth.
In Jesus Christ's name I pray,
who lives and reigns with the Father
and the Holy Spirit
One God
forever and ever.Amen~
