Tom Bass Prayer Ministry
A Note from the Tom Bass Prayer Ministry: We are saddened to hear of the passing of Mr. Autry Lee Buford, father of our publisher and friend, Mr. Michael D. Buford. Please accept this resolution with our deepest condolences. No matter what your trials are, or how big your mountain seems; The Lord is there to see you through; He?ll go to all extremes. So if your cross seems hard to bear; and you know not what to do; The One who loves you most of all will be there to see you through. We are in place in this world for a limited time, and with the breath of the infant begin the race to the grave. A race everyone must run. WHEREAS, in the providence of God. He has brought to a close the life of Mr. Buford, the Ministers, Pastors and members of the Tom Bass Prayer Ministry feel that it is befitting to express our sympathy to the family. We commend you to God, and you have our sincere prayers. WHERAS, Mr. Buford was the head of a family for 90 years, a very independent person who would perform any tasks and instilled this love for humanity in his family to follow his example. He loved his family as best he could with a unique kindness, yet stern combination which only he possessed. BE IT RESOLVED, that we bow in humble submission to Him who never makes a mistake and remind the family to be encouraged by remembering this poem. ?When I must leave you for a little while, please do not grieve and shed wild tears And hug your sorrow to you through the years. But start out bravely with a gallant smile; And for my sake and in my name Live on and do all things the same, Feed not your loneliness on empty days, But fill each waking hour in useful ways, Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near, and never, never be afraid to die, For I am waiting for you in the sky!?
