Good choice for the Hall of Heroes, Star.
I read of COL Mahurin’s service when I was just a wee lad, many seasons ago.

Bring Them To Jesus
Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Mark 10:14
The Scripture reading from Luke 18 about children seemed unusual at the memorial service for David Holquist. After all, he was 77 when he died.
Yet the pastor said the verses fit David, a long-time college professor, perfectly. Part of his legacy was that he took time for childrenhis own and others. He made balloon animals and puppets, and helped in a puppet ministry at church. When planning worship services with others, he frequently asked, What about the children? He was concerned about what would help the childrennot just the adultsto worship God.
Luke 18 shows us the concern Jesus had for children. When people brought little ones to Him, the disciples wanted to protect Jesus, a busy man, from the bothersome children. But it seems that Jesus was not at all bothered by them. Just the opposite. The Bible says that Jesus was greatly displeased at the disciples, and said, Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them (v.16). Mark adds that Jesus took them in His arms and blessed them (10:14-16).
Lets examine our own attitude about children and then follow the example of David Holquist. Find some ways to help them come to Jesus.
To those who are teaching the gospel,
With love in their hearts for its truth,
Comes the gentle reminder from heaven,
Forget not the children and youth. Anon.
God has great concern for little children.

Our family knew Col. Mahurin and his family. My Father served with him twice, and then worked with him at North American during the Apollo mission. Dad, as an OSI agent, was one of the people who interviewed Col. Mahurin after his release from Korea.
Both Mom and Dad said he was a good man. Both read of his death with sadness. But, on the good side, it has them contacting some of their old friends.
