Dr. Roy McLaughlin

When he was called as pastor of Heritage Baptist Church in Waxahachie, Tx I knew he was the person I wanted to help.

Dear Neva and Family,

Don and and I didn't hear about Roy's death until yesterday. You and your family are in our prayers.

In Christ,

I haven't written until now, honestly, because I just hurt SO bad! I don't have words of comfort, I don't have much to offer except a tremendous amount of love & respect for Pastor & all of you! He meant so much to our family & still does. He was & is spoken of in our house daily. We all think so much of him, our daughters are really having a tough time with losing him. They loved him & miss him so... We will never have such a caring, loving, godly,sweet, funny & passionate Pastor as we did...

Roy and I were roommates at Jacksonville College in 1968. I used to really make him homesick by playing "Supper Time" on the guitar. I know he's not homesick any more.

Dear Roy McLaughling family,
We are sorry and saddend for the great loss of your Roy. I grew up with Roy and his family at Mt. Calvary Baptist in Pleasant Grove, TX over 50 years ago.

Dear Mrs. Neva and Family,

We are so sorry to hear about your loss. The students at Canyon Creek has so many great memories of Bro. Roy. Thank you so much for making Sammy feel so special when he was able to come up. His heart is heavy and broken right now but he loves you and Bro. Roy so much. He has always said that he hasn't changed just keeps on getting better and better. We will keep you and your family in our prayers. We will also pray for your church as the healing process...

To the McLaughlin Family: Our deepest sympathy to you and our prayers are with you. Bro. Roy was a true friend to us and a faithful worker for the Lord. We will miss his smile, encouragement, and love. God bless you is our prayer.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your sons. I can't imagine to understand what you are going through because I don't understand but I know we serve a God that will help you all through this. We knew you and Bro Roy in Waxahachie, TX. He Baptised my children and was a blessing to our family. He will be missed by all who knew him. I was just thinking of you and Roy a few days ago. We have moved from Waxahachie to Bossier City, La so I haven't...
