In Memoriam Timothy Leland Plewes

In Japan, many homes have a "Butsudan", a small family altar. The passed members of the family portraits are hung over it. When visiting someones home you give a gift or say a short prayer of respect at the family altar. Family Alter "Butsudan"Family Altar "Butsudan"This is not ancestor worship, but only a form of memorial and respect. I like this, as I too would like my future generations to remember me and not to just bury and forget as it is often done in America. So I made a family altar in my home and also this meager web page to honor and remember one of the most important and dynamic people of my life here on earth. My brother Tim.

1957 - 1984

June 19th 1957 - February 26th 1984


Foot Prints

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed
he was walking along the beach with the LORD.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life.
For each scene he noticed two sets of
footprints in the sand: one belonging
to him, and the other to the LORD.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along the path of
his life there was only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened at the very
lowest and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him and he
questioned the LORD about it:

"LORD, you said that once I decided to follow
you, you'd walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life,
there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why when
I needed you most you would leave me."

The LORD replied:

"My son, my precious child,
I love you and I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering,
when you see only one set of footprints,
it was then that I carried you."
