I still miss him so bad sometimes. He always said when Nathan and I had children, he was going to move in with us to watch us ;o) What a mess he was! His singing was... well, you know...but he sure made a JOYFUL noise unto the Lord!! I know he's having a blast right now. I still owe him an apple pie (my last promise to him), and he owes me one game of Rook with no cheating ;o) <BR/>Makes heaven sweeter knowing he's there!Charityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10541567330511968163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3352004303079121460.post-55646967911340823462007-08-23T12:43:00.000-04:002007-08-23T12:43:00.000-04:00He sounds like a very nice man to know.

Stetler asked him to speak a couple of times when he was visiting over Sunday. He was enjoyable to listen to. He seemed to be very genuine and had a great sense of humor.Kelly Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15123048956208098095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3352004303079121460.post-22391984416775047462007-08-22T23:29:00.000-04:002007-08-22T23:29:00.000-04:00Great tribute to Bro.

But good to know that God can redeem anything for His glory. Very well said truths and words of love for this good man. And of course it's true that his struggles are over, but still OK to miss him.

I didn't get the privilege to meet him, but remember hearing about his sickness and death and remember PRAYING HARD for his family during that VERY DIFFICULT TIME. <BR/>Enjoyed reading what you had to write.<BR/>Thanks for stopping by my blog, and for your sweet comment. I'm proud of you for making an apple pie, sounds yummy.
