Not sure what to say?

Mr. Hoskins was a chosen Man, He left a legacy some learned and some still live by. Hard not to think about Him. I have nothing else to say. WC

Loved and learned so much from RK Hoskins over the years. His teachings and faith will leave a lasting impression on all those who love the word.
