Morning services began at 11 with the Toole Choir rendering the music. In keeping with the Presi dent’s request that Sunday be a day of mourning for the late Senator Kennedy, Rev, Foust began his message by saying that Robert Kennedy’s life seemed to have been marked by the cross of Jesus Christ. The cross of Christ makes a new and different individual of one. It takes old men, whose Jives are wrapped in sin, and makes new persons of them. Since the existence of the cross, it has changed many lives. Very few people are will ing to jeopardize their lives for others. One can imagine that there were times when Robert Kennedy was tempted to turn his lack on public life, but he chose to offer himself for Dis people. This was no small un dertaking on his part as every one desires a life free from troubles and woes. He was in a position to enjoy all the material comfots this world cars afford one; yet, he realized that life consisted of something more than material things. Life is an involvement and he chose to become in volved with those perplexities of life which blighted the lives of others. Living is in vain unless one can attune his actions to the suffering around him. He concluded by saying that it ,seemed that the Almighty had created families for speci fic purposes. The Kennedy fam ily seems to be such a family in that they bear grief with pride and dignity. The memorial service was concluded with the choir sing ing very effectively “The Bat tle Hymn of the Republic.” Meditative prayers followed.
