LeAndrew LaRon Gaddie

Where do I begin? Well, according to Webster a guest is--a visitor or a friend entertained in the house or at the table of another. He further states that a book is a printed or written literary work; a volume; division of a literary work. I know some can follow me in the spirit. I am a guest to this book on a regular basis. So, I guess I visit Laron's house and sit at his table quite often. Laron was a literary work to all. His life and love was a book that many have read and will continue...

Without "Ron", I would not have the desire to play the organ.I watched him, I watched him, and I watched him. Everybody says,"you play and sound just like Ron". I thank god for him because he was my hero, my friend, my brother. Ron was there for me when my own family wasn't there. I love him and i miss him dearly. But,one thing I know, god doesn't make any mistakes. Ron i love you and i miss you. And cause of God calling you home, I have another reason to go to heaven. I will see you again....

Matthew 6:1 "Take heed that you do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your father which is in heaven".* Whatever LaRon did for someone, he did it in secret. It was always done out of love and friendship. He would on occassion walk up to so many of us and say come by and see me at the shop. Once you got there he would encourage you by giving you a banging hairstyle and treating you to lunch at one of his favorite soulfood resturants. No one would ever...

What an honor it was to be acquainted with LaRon in ministry. Certainly, I have witnessed many lives he has ministered to, one being my own. Never have I met such a talented brother in Christ - and I will miss the gifts LaRon shared so graciously with us.

From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, Your name is worthy to be praised. This is what "Ron" did, he praised God all the time..Ron learned to give God a yet praise. He gave God a sacrifice of praise. He gave God a stand still and know that I AM GOD praise. Although his body was filled with red blood, it was also filled with praise. I was so delighted to have known this TRUE man of honor, valor and much respect, who was so real in everything he did. Ron you are now singing...

To the Gaddie Family:
I want you to know that I have great memories of Laron and of yourselves and my love is with you.

To the family of Mr. Laron Gaddie:

I just wanted to let you know that my prayers are with you. I had the pleasure of meeting Laron through my sister Twyla Burks and what a pleasure it was, to have met such a wonderful person. Everytime, I would see Laron he always had a kind word and a beautiful smile to go behind the words. I would also like to say to the siblings, continue to stand together and let no one come between that bond. I know what it's like to lose someone that is...
