He is off by the hills of the morning,
By the dim, untrodden ways;
In the clean, wet, windy marshes
He has startled the deer agraze;
And a buck of the branching antlers
Streams out from the fleeing herd,
And the youth is apt to the running
As the tongue to the spoken word.
They have gone by the broken ridges, by mesa and hill and swale,
Nor once did the red deer falter, nor the feet of the runner fail;
So lightly they trod on the lupines that scarce were the flower-stalks bent,
And over the tops of the dusky sage the wind of their running went.
From The Deer-Star

Trades Masters would like to express our deepest heartfelt condolences. Adam was a valued employee.
 My condolences go out to the family and friends ofAdam Royal. Losing a loved one so young is never easy. We all want to spend our lives with the ones we love and death gets in the way of that. But what brings me comfort is Acts 24:15 where it says “there is going to be a resurrection.†So it’s reassuring to know that I will see my loved one again and so can you. Look to the hope ahead (2 Peter 3:13 and Revelation 21:4) as you comfort one another with happy memories of joyful times together. My deepest sympathy.
