A Life Well-Lived

 “Life well-lived” was the phrase I heard several times at today’s  funeral for Dr. A.B. “Bud” Weir. 
A God-honoring life. 
A life devoted to his wife and service to others. 
A life that embodied Micah 6:8……as for many years both he and his wife, Sunny, walked humbly with their God. 
Fully devoted, faithful to the Lord and faithful to each other. 
On fire for God. Follower of Jesus Christ.

I know this to be true because of the heritage I have seen in Dr. Weir’s children and in the grandchildren whom I know. Bud Weir “walked his talk” as the pastor said, and passed the spiritual baton on to each of his four children.

He shared his life in love and service to family, friends and many others whose paths he crossed. He shared his faith that never wavered, and he shared his hope that was based on eternal truth from God’s word.
In essence, Dr. Weir's legacy outlives his life because his family carries on the spiritual impact left by their father. 
That, my friends, is truly “a life well lived!”
