...but sustained and soothed By an unfaltering trust, approach the grave, Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams. -- from Thanatopsis by William Cullen Bryant We read this poem in my American literature class yesterday, and a student brought up how Ms. Nix was approaching death with such positive outlook because of her unfaltering trust in the Lord. We will miss Ruth Ann, but we are glad that she is rejoicing in Heaven today.
