Dying With Warm Feet

It is said that as we age we become more like ourselves. That is either a good thing or a bad thing, according to who we have been before.

But I like the story of the church historian who was dying, his family gathered around his bed. They were not sure if he were still alive. Someone said, “Feel his feet. No one ever died with warm feet.” The historian whispered, “John Hus did.”

True to himself and his calling, all the way to the end.
