To the family and many friends of Brother Bernard Martin Huffman, the Brethren of Scioto Lodge wish to extend our heartfelt sympathies following the passing of our Friend and Brother Bernard. I had the privilege of visiting him at the Veterans Hospital here in Chillicothe.

One unforgettable story when a family member or friend departs this earthly abode and which gives me comfort in times like this, is the passage from the book Day-By-Day Brighton Books, 1999 is the God Can Handle It Edited by Dr. S.M. Henriques

"We are standing on a shore. A large sailing ship is about to pull out. Friends and relatives of ours are standing on the deck, waving goodbye, throwing streamers, calling to us, calling our names. And we call to them and to each other. . A bell sounds. The ship begins to move away.
"We stand silently for a very long time and watch as the ship goes further and further away until, finally, the mast is just a vertical pencil line on the distant horizon. Then it too goes down, until we can no longer see it. And we sigh, ‘Oh, she’s gone.’
"But gone from where? Gone from our sight. That’s all. "For at the very moment we sigh, ‘Oh, she’s gone,’ another cried on another shore is jumping up and down, laughing and yelling and pointing excitedly out to sea saying, ‘Look! She’s coming. Look, the ship is coming home! Look! The ship is coming home. There is another shore, another dimension in which we have already begun to live. We are filled with the Spirit of our Risen Savior—forever.

May God sustain you in your time of grief.
