The Word of God was his strength and he took time to read and meditate upon it. He loved going to church and worshiping with other believers. But his greatest joy was when someone gave their heart to the Lord and joined the family.

I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day-and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing. 2 Timothy 4: 6-8 Sierra Mortuary - Lake Isabella www.bakersfield.com/obits
