So sorry for the loss of your father Pastor T.. remember how much you talked about your father and mother and I know that it will be a void there that God will need to patch. You love him, but God loves him best and has called him home. Have confidence in his resting place and know that you will see him after your journey has been completed. May OUR father in Heaven continue to bless you and your family. I love you and "There's nothing you can do about it."

We are saddened to learn of the passing of a legendary figure in our community. One who opened doors and paved the way for others. May God in His infinite wisdom sustain and comfort the family during this difficult time.
