Robert Lincoln Batchelor

There are few like Robert Batchelor. He was a true gentleman and scholar from whom I carry many fond memories. He was loving, funny, and wise, and he has an impact on me still. He and Autumn have a special place in my heart.

Mr. Batchelor came in as a substitute in my high school chemistry class in 1988 but ended up being there the entire year. I was struggling in that class until he arrived. He taught me so much and never tired of explaining things to me when I got confused! I learned so much from his time teaching our class that when I started college 3 years later I had no problem making an "A" in the class! I had so much admiration for him! Words just don't seem enough!! I am sure he now has many crowns!

What a wonderful man and husband. Thanks to Rock Haven Nursing home, the D.O.N. there paired my daughter with Mrs. Autumn because we were looking for a woman that my daughter could minister to. Every time we would visit Ms. Autumn she would have a periodical or book authored by Charles Stanley on her bedside table. She was such a lovely Godly women and Mr. Batchelor would visit her daily. They were such a sweet couple and it was a privledge to know them. Heaven is rejoicing at their reunion.

One of God's true soldiers. I attended Northwood some years ago and Bro. Bob was one of the nicest people I met while there. He truly had a heart of God's work and was a walking encyclopedia of the Bible and scripture. He was a true gentlemen and a wonderful person. I am blessed for having known him.
