Our Dearest Denny, Our hearts are so heavy at this moment that it’s really hard to put our emotions into words. Pastor was more than a spiritual leader to us. He was a friend that only comes around once in a lifetime. Because of his impartation into our lives, we have experienced what it is like to see God in his fullness. That’s something most people only hear about. Every time we hear Christina’s voice, or see her face, we will remember Pastor’s dedication, his faithfulness, and his love. With every battle that we overcome, we realize that the foundation was laid by the blood, sweat, and tears of this great man. Without a strong foundation, the finest house will soon fall down. Because of Pastor’s teaching, we not only live victorious lives; but we can teach our children to live victorious lives as well. He has given us a gift that is more valuable than precious gems or any amount of money. He has given us the gift of knowing how to live the God-like kind of life. For that, thank-you is not nearly enough. Our gift to him will be living our lives the way the Lord has commanded us. A life that is victorious, abundant, and kingdom minded. We love you Denny, and we would like to thank you for sharing, as Fred would say, “Brother Bob” with us. Our prayer is that the Lord would strengthen you and give you peace during this time. We pray that your every need is met, and in the midst of your darkest moments you will think of his goodness and give him praise. Love Always, Fred, Teresa, Shayla and Christina
