Not sure what to say?

Dear Janie,
I will always remember what Bert said so long ago.."If you left this world today, where would you go? The best you can hope for is to know your bags are packed and you will be READY to go".
Because of his great love of Christ and his sharing God's love with me , I too can know if I left this world today, my bags are packed and I am ready to go.
So always keep in mind you WILL be with him again..
I love you all.

I am deeply sorry for your loss, I know that Bert will be greatly missed by his family and church family. You are all in my prayers. I can only imagine that right now there is a big smile on his face.

Bert was one of the most wonderful men I have ever met. He always had a smile on his face. He was a wonderful example for Christ. I will always keep close to my heart that he married my mama and daddy and me and Cabell and he also baptized all of us and dedicated Rebecca to the church. I know he is in Heaven all his questions answered as well as being with his child and mother. No more pain and no more tears he is finally home. The influence he left behind was great and he touched so many...

To Pastor Bert's Family,
I want to thank you for sharing Pastor Bert with all of us at Summersett Baptist Church and all around the community. He was a lighthouse to me, and I will never, never forget him. He helped me through alot of things in my life by being my Pastor and friend for over 30 years. Even when he felt bad and hurting from his arthritis he went out into the community and visited the sick and one's who was in need. I will always remember his beautiful smile!!!! He could...

To Mrs. Janie, family and church family,
Bert was my sunshine every Sunday and Wednesday night. My time at church was not complete if I didn't get my kiss and hug from him before I left. I have so many memories of him and I miss him so very much, as I know all of Bert's sheep do. Our shepherd has gone but will never be forgotten. He will always be with us in our hearts.
Bert was such a wonderful person and so sincere in all he did. He has been the rock of our church for so long it...

Janie and the girls,
So sorry for your loss, my thoughts and prayers have been with each of you, Bert was a wonderful man, always knew how to lift your spirits if he knew you needed them lifted. Glad to have had him in my life. May God Bless each of you at this time.

Janie and Family,
Bert was a very special man. Some of us were talking about him awhile back stating that he was not only a preacher, he was a loyal pastor. He was there for all of us, whether we went to church all of the time or not, when we were sick or sad, or any relative ,he would make sure he was there to comfort us. He was very special.

Our very deepest sympathy,
Steve, Charlotte, Allen, Johanna, Keith and Julia Shelton
