Here is a story By Jim Jack "Team RFC"
By Jim Jack
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing,” (2 Timothy 4:7-8 (NIV)
Yes my dear friends, today it’s true;
Don left this green earth for the skies so blue.
Though he was with us for only 66 years;
He’d tell you now he’s in a place with no more tears.
He made us laugh, and he made us cry;
So with his work now completed, don’t ask why.
He won so many races and so many cases;
It’s like Don hit home runs every day as he rounded the bases.
This man had a smile that could knock out a heavyweight;
Don’s gentle character was just this man’s normal trait.
Don was the real king of the alky flats;
He took home so many trophies Phyllis had to turn them into vats.
God chose this man to serve with truth and justice;
We all believed it, because the “Mako Force” would simply dust us.
His name is forever etched reaching for the highest tops;
On the race track or in court room, he could bust your chops.
Don wasn’t too big to do something small;
And what was so cool was that he loved us all.
Don would have gladly raced anywhere for a quarter;
And thankfully he preferred drafts of God’s living water.
With credentials rivaling the greatest box office feature;
Don chose a God who gave him a bright future.
We’ll miss this man whom we all grew to love and adore;
But only time will tell who will follow him through heavens door.
So you are fortunate to have learned about Don’s eternal plan;
Today, please allow God to introduce you to His “Son of Man.”
Last but not least, please allow me to close this case with the following argument…
“Ladies and gentlemen; yes, Don Ermshar has been found guilty on three counts…yes three counts…the 1st count of loving God, the 2nd count of loving his wife, and the 3rd count of loving racing.
Now the jury has come to the decision on Don’s sentencing. He gets life…yes eternal life…with his God…and eventually with his wife Phyllis too, and with all of his friends that have also been found guilty of believing in Jesus Christ.
The evidence was clearly overwhelming having been precisely presented, and it only took the jury a “twinkling of an eye” to reach their verdict…and it was a unanimous verdict.
The jury has excused all of us from this case and Phyllis and Don would like to thank each and every one of you very much for being here in this room and agreeing with this decision. This court is now adjourned.”
