Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
Not unexpectedly, we have lost another one of our friends.
Harvey Estes (Ferguson High School Class of 1965), has passed away at his
home in Mount Airy , MD at the age of 60 after a battle with melanoma.
Although he did not actually graduate from Newport News
High School, he grew up with many of us. His older sister, the
late
Helen Estes Thomas (1 Feb 1942 - 12 Feb 1997), was a member of the Class of
1960
From Linda Lane Lane ('64)
of VA
- 08/29/07:
... Another person from the North End is in need of our prayers. Some of you may remember Harvey Estes. He went to Stonewall Jackson and NNHS. I think he graduated from Ferguson in '65. Harvey has cancer and is not doing well. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. His sister, Helen, graduated in 1960. She died some years ago from cancer. Harvey lives in the D.C./MD. area and his parents still reside in NN....

This Is My Father's World
Words by Maltbie D. Babcock, 1901
Traditional English Melody (Terra Beata), arranged by Franklin L.
Sheppard, 1915
This is my Father’s world, and to
my listening ears
All nature sings, and round me rings the music of the spheres.
This is my Father’s world: I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
His hand the wonders wrought.
This is my Father’s world, the birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white, declare their Maker’s praise.
This is my Father’s world: He shines in all that’s fair;
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass;
He speaks to me everywhere.
This is my Father’s world. O let me ne’er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father’s world: the battle is not done:
Jesus Who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and Heav’n be one.
This is my Father’s world, dreaming, I see His face.
I ope my eyes, and in glad surprise cry, “The Lord is in this place.”
This is my Father’s world, from the shining courts above,
The Beloved One, His Only Son,
Came—a pledge of deathless love.
This is my Father’s world, should my heart be ever sad?
The lord is King—let the heavens ring. God reigns—let the earth be glad.
This is my Father’s world. Now closer to Heaven bound,
For dear to God is the earth Christ trod.
No place but is holy ground.
This is my Father’s world. I walk a desert lone.
In a bush ablaze to my wondering gaze God makes His glory known.
This is my Father’s world, a wanderer I may roam
Whate’er my lot, it matters not,
My heart is still at home.
