Jeff's wife, Tammy, had prayed today, asking God for a sign of some sort. She just felt particularly in need of something to strengthen her spirit in the midst of all this loss.
After returning home from the funeral, graveside, and the fellowship meal afterwards, two of her neighbors met her at her driveway.
They said in 30 years of living there, they'd never seen anything like it before.
While we were all at the funeral today, a whitetail deer had walked up from behind Forrest's house. It walked up to the front of the house and stopped, looking towards the driveway where so much of Jeff's hunting and fishing equipment had been readied or cleaned up through the years.
After a good long look, the deer walked away and disappeared.
Though the hunter be gone, the hunt goes on. And a great "Thank You!" to God for a poignant parting shot!
