Old Soldiers Never Die

<p>Rev. Wallace A. Evans is my grandfather who lived to be 100 years old. He was born August 22 1884 and he died November 29 1984. My grandfather was a man among men. I have come to realize he will live on in all of us. If I were to sum up his life in a song it would be I'm A Soldier in the Army of The Lord. It is an honor to be labeled a soldier in the Lord's army. It's even greater honor if your journey lasts 100 years. His dedicated life has left a profound impartation upon mine. It has been a great pleasure and honor to write about him. Old soldiers they don't die they just fade away is both a poetic and prophetic way to sum up my grandfather's inspiring life.</p>
