Willie Gene Payne

May the peace of God continue to comfort you all as the loss of our dear Minister Payne is felt in our daily lives. We must continue to stand strong and keep the faith. I love you all and will keep you in my prayers.

There have been times in my life when I have hurt so profoundly that I knew I was breaking new ground, but I had no clue how to deal with it. If there had been a trauma center for the spirit, I would have checked myself in. But until the day comes when a spiritual ER is a reality, the Bible will help us learn to cope with those dark times that throw us for a loop.
I hurt because of your lost, it has a deep effect. I pray that you all regain your strength and continue on.

As I heard of Min Gene's sickness, my heart was sadden. In his passing there is a great joy knowing that his heart is not troubled anymore for he is resting with the one that loved him so, that he gave his only begotten son for him. May the family find strength and encouragemnt in knowing he's with the one his soul loveth. God Bless all of you, he is greatly missed. Weep if you have to but joy will come in the morning.

If you knew where I am standing
If you could see the sights I see
If you could hear the angels singing
The songs they sing eternally
If you knew the One I'm holding
Could see the smile He smiles at me
If you knew where I am resting
You would not cry for me

I'm resting in the arms of Jesus
No other place would I rather be
So if you shed a tear
Please don't shed it for me
For if you knew where I am resting
You would not cry for me

My prayers are with you that God will send you the comfort you need at this time. I am here for you.

my prayers are with the whole family and i love you all ...i have been in this family for 4 years and and think of dad as my own father if you need anything please just ask.

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help at this time.

While living in Ithaca I had the pleasure of lnowing Mary McCoy and what a wonderful person she is. I then became friends and knew people of the apostelic faith and Willie was one of them.God bless all of you at this time.

Praise the Lord to the Family. I was sadden to hear that the Lord had called Minister Gene home. I will miss him calling me "Speedy". You all are in my thoughts and prayers as you move forward in the days and weeks ahead. I pray that God will continue to give you all the strength that you need. Keep your heads up and keep trusting in the Lord for God.
