Live each and every day to the fullest, folks. We never know just what the Three Fates have spun for us:

Clotho, responsible for spinning the thread of life, some threads are spun more finely than others.

Lachesis was is the Fate who measured the thread spun on Clotho's spindle. She was the apportioner, deciding how much time for life was to be allowed for each. She sometimes also determined the destiny of each thread.

Finally, Atropos, the oldest of the Three Fates chose the mechanism of death and ended the life of each mortal by cutting their thread with her shears.

Dyna was a good one. It is said that a candle burning brightly at both ends burns half as long, and that was certainly the case with Dyna. He was a force to be reckoned with, a superior soldier, and a great father. His thread was of the finest quality. I just wish he'd been allotted a bit more time with us.
God Bless him!

Nice eulogy!
