Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of Daniel Edward Hedenberg Sr, WW II, 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, Daniel.
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.
Standing in Spirit.... |

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you: 1. Jesus Christ. 2. The American G.I. One died for your soul, the other for your Freedom.

I send my condolences to you about your father's passing. You should be proud of the long life he's had and his experience and survival that he made during the war. God gave him back after the war and he belongs to God now and forever.

A Soldier's Prayer
(author unknown)
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.
