Not sure what to say?

I known him at powerhouse. He was always nice and a gentleman to me. So I was always nice to him and I always showed him respect. He's in a better place now and he was real religious and I believe he was a pastor and so if it's just time to go it's just time to go.

Condolences to the Smith Family.

My mother is greatly moved by the death of her pastor. She was seriously injured in a car accident in December of last year and the pastor and his wife were so kind to pray for my mother and to send a beautiful plant as she recovered.

We offer our condolences and love as the pastor transitions into his journey to heaven.

He was a blessing to me both naturally and spiritually. Two years later Pastor Mark officiated his...
