I am shocked and saddened to hear the news that my friend from Stonewall Jackson and Calvary Baptist has passed away. Although "GG" and I did not stay in touch after school, I have many fond memories of popcorn and those black and white westerns at the Warwick Theatre, birthday parties at the old apartment on Huntington Avenue, and Christmas pageants in the "new" gym.

My condolences to his children, his
wife Jennifer, and especially his mother, Frances.

Jimmy Narron was a good friend in high school and such fun to be with. I only saw him a few times since high school but kept up with him thru Kiger, Owens and Bill Rash. Our prayers are with the Narron Family.

Jim was a neighbor, friend and golfing buddy in the late 70's. Although we lost contact after moving away, I'll always have memories of us sneaking away from work to golf. My condolences to the family.

Our sincerest sympathies are extended to the Narron family and their friends at this time.

Y'all take good care of each other! TYPHOONS FOREVER! We'll Always Have Buckroe!

Trust and Obey

Lyrics by John H. Sammis, 1887
Music by Daniel B. Towner

When we walk with the Lord
In the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will,
He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

Not a shadow can rise,
Not a cloud in the skies,
But His smile quickly drives it away;
Not a doubt or a fear,
Not a sigh or a tear,
Can abide if we trust and obey.

Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

Not a burden we bear,
Not a sorrow we share,
But our toil He doth richly repay;
Not a grief or a loss,
Not a frown or a cross,
But is blest if we trust and obey.

Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

But we never can prove
The delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows,
For the joy He bestows,
Are for them who will trust and obey.

Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.

Then in fellowship sweet
We will sit at His feet.
Or we'll walk by His side in the way.
What He says we will do,
Where He sends we will go;
Never fear, only trust and obey.

Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy with Jesus,
But to trust and obey.
