Not sure what to say?

I remember when he was at C Street Church of Christ. His love of God and delivering his messages impressed me so much that was able to have him come to Daniel Boone High School and deliver a message to our Christians in Action members that at the time. I understand they no longer have that organization there now. I was so proud for a preacher from the Church of Christ to come and teach like he did. Some of the students told me they’d like to have him back but the overseers there at the...

I was saddened to hear of Marlin's passing. I wish I was available to attend the visitation so I could love on all of you. I don't have to tell you that he is celebrating right now, but doesn't make it easier on those that love him. I pray that you will feel God's arms embrace you and give you strength through this valley. Love always.

Brother Rohrbaugh preached a meeting at the Crescent Church of Christ around 1980. I still remember one of his sermons: "The Seven Sayings of Christ on the Cross". I remember his being moved to tears as he talked about Jesus' suffering love. I also remember his banjo picking! (not in church, of course :) Praise God for this faithful servant.

Sympathy to the Rohrbaugh family. I remember the family came to East Main in the 70’s and how Marlin would ride his motorcycle through the streets of Murfreesboro. East Main had mostly older members and they were shocked to see him park it in the hall of the 214 House. He was the preacher at East Main for 4 years. Love to you.

Brian I am so sorry for the loss of your father. Sending prayers to you and your family. Fran Bailey
