_________________________________________

Harlan Lyttle a member of our Greatest Generation passed away this morning 4/5/08.
Funeral arrangements and interment site will be determined 4/6.
Harlan participated in many major battles including the Normandy Landing, Battle of the Bulge and Battle of the Rhine. His original unit the 82d Airborne and 101st Airborne were eventually combined into the 101st Airborne as both units had so many casualties that consolidation was necessary for them to function as a fighting force.

Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Harlan Lyttle, WWII Veteran. May God help you though this difficult time and sorrow. He is one of America's Heroes that will never be forgotten.

Rest Safely and Securely in God's Loving Arms, Harlan.
 
Going home, going home,
I'm just going home.
Quiet-like, slip away-
I'll be going home.
It's not far, just close by;
Jesus is the Door;
Work all done, laid aside,
Fear and grief no more.
Friends are there, waiting now.
He is waiting, too.
See His smile! See His hand!
He will lead me through.


Morning Star lights the way;
Restless dream all done;
Shadows gone, break of day,
Life has just begun.
Every tear wiped away,
Pain and sickness gone;
Wide awake there with Him!
Peace goes on and on!
Going home, going home,
I'll be going home.
See the Light! See the Sun!
I'm just going home.
