Not sure what to say?

As a young boy in Morrisville, I was amazed to see a pastor playing the trombone in church! My sympathies to his family.

Pastor Gage was our pastor when we moved to Morrisville in the 60s. A kind man who brought laughter to his ministry. My sympathies to his family.

Hi Mary,
Gary, I and my Mom are ever so grateful to the Lord for knowing such a precious couple as you and Pastor Gage. We know that Al is grinning from ear to ear in the presence of the Lord. We will miss him dearly. We love you both:)

Hi Mary

We were saddened to hear of Alvin's passing, but excited for him to be in the presence of the Lord. Many years ago when our son Brian died we had great sorrow but when we realized he was in heaven there was great joy in our hearts that has been an everlasting comfort. May you know that everlasting comfort that only God can bring as you think about Alvin's current residence.

Please know that you are in our prayers and thoughts at this time.

I remember as a little girl going to Bethany for Sunday School and attending the one year celebration for Pastor Gage being at our church. Bethany was truly blessed to have such a true man of God lead us for so many years. when Andy and I was in our early 20's, Pastor Gage baptised both of us. His words and passion for knowing Christ and sharing this with us every Sunday brought us to this decision of following God.Being married so young Andy & I had very rough times and there is no doubt in...

The world has lost a great man of God, as now he has been promoted to heaven. He has left a great legacy as a pastor and a healer. It is left up to us to remember him and to follow his example. The time will come when we too will join him in the heavenly realm. We pray God's comfort for Mary and family in this time of sorrow. We pray Psalm 46 will be your strength and comfort.

So many memories of my childhood pastor! Pastor playing his trombone during the singning, my baptism where he read a verse about a princess, David teaching me to play a guitar, etc.. you will all be in my prayers!

Darlene and family,
So sorry to hear about Rev Gage. He and your family were always in my thoughts. My prayers are with you all.
