Ruth I. Vayhinger

My father, Most Revd Dr Monday Nwogu Nkemakolam, whose mentor was Dr John Vayhinger, told me many stories about the exemplary Christian marriage you and John had. Your family was a blessing to my dad when he was a student at Anderson University Indiana in the last 1960s. May God bless your generation. Hopefully someday I will meet them and tel them how much you and your husband helped my dad and my late mum who were Nigerian students then

You were the epitome of love, acceptance and family. You always made my family and I feel more than welcomed - we were at home. I know John and mom are welcoming you to the heavenly mansion and it is fair to say that between you two ladies the hospitality up there is taken care of. I know the heritage you have left behind will do everything possible to fill the void. I love you and will miss you.

To the family of Ruth Vayhinger;
I want to express my prayers and condolences to you all. Ruth was a kind, caring, and devoted companion to John, especially when he held pastor's seminars.

Ruth and Dr. John Vayhinger left a multitude of Church of God friends. They blessed us with a lasting legacy of grace, peace, and wisdom, that expressed the depths of God's abundant love. Many of us benefited from them, and will long cherish their memory.
