Not sure what to say?

I never had the privilege of hearing Bro. Raymond Cook preach in person that I can recall. However, one time I had a chance to talk personally with him at the Economy Tire shop. I saw his car pull up as I looked at the window and it had a Christian tag on the front bumper. He ended up sitting beside me and I remember him saying in our conversation that he never went 24 hours without reading and studying the Word of God. That has stuck with me. What a wonderful servant of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Missing Reverend Cook and my Dad, Reverend John R. Sullins. They held many Revivals together, and both were such Inspirations!! Sending much love to the Cook Family on this Anniversary of Raymond's going to Heaven!! Love, Trish

I was saved in 1962 at Antioch baptist church, Bro. cook had invited me there and over the years we laughed together and we cried together. My daughter was saved there and we all miss him so much.I pray that the next pastor will have a burden for the lost as much as he did.

I'm very thankful for the opportunity to have known Rev. Raymond Cook, and for the power God gave him. I was one of the many that would travel near and far to hear Bro Cook preach the gospel. As a young Christian if I heard of Preacher Cook helping in Revival anywhere between Atlanta GA and Chattanooga TN, I'd be there. I remember times during his preaching that I thought heaven was absolutely going to come down. He will be greatly missed by God's people everywhere.

I thank the Lord for calling Bro. Cook to preach the gospel. He preached a revival at Blue Pond Baptist in Rome when I got under conviction. I was saved the following Sunday morning. He has blessed me and my family greatly.

Brother Cook was a very special man that was dear to my family and I. My family was fortunate to go to the Holy Land with him in 1978. I will always remember the many sermons I heard him preach and the many "sayings" he had. He would always say to me " I sure do love you" and I will never forget the impact he made in my life. He may be gone but he is not forgotten. I will see him again when I check out here and check in there. Thank you Brother Cook for what you meant to my family and I.

Reverend Raymond Cook meant the world to me. Antioch has been my church since I was born. If I ever had a problem and needed someone to pray with me I went to Bro. Cooks home and he always gladly prayed with me. I know he is in a better place but I still miss him and it still hurts my heart to know he isn't just down the road for me to visit or speak with. I miss his guidance. I love and miss him terribly and it just isn't the same without him around. He was a Christian who was strong in his...
