Today was very humbling… We were blessed to attend the home going of Dr. Charles L. Sifford. Many beautiful memories and messages were shared about Charlie and how he lived his life as an ambassador to all.
One gentleman poetically captured Charlie’s passion for golf, comparing it to the life he led:
1. Your ultimate goal in golf is to make a hole in one, without taking additional strokes.
2. You have to make the cut, to make the money…. You need to have discipline.
3. Many bring The Lord onto the course with them… And many need it lol
4. Just because you hit a great shot, it’s not over until you finish the hole.
Golf = Life to many. If you live your life like a pro golfer, like Charlie, you are guaranteed entrance into heaven… That’s the ultimate Hole in One.
Thank you Dr. Sifford for being an inspiration to so many. You broke down barriers and paved the way for all races. You were loved by many and will be remembered…
