My Condolances to his family.

Clint! Were to start? A Pastor, a husband, a son, a guy who shared the word of GOD, and most of all... my best friend! I went to North Pointe. And Clint was the nicest person there. I have so many memories with him. I would call him Clifford the BIG Red Dog and he would call me Ape. The only person ever allowed to call me Ape! I don't get why this had to happen, but out of it came a wake up call for most. I just can't wait till the day when we all stand hand in hand, infront of God.! But untill then all we can do is pray!

To the Family of Rev. Dobson. I could not understand this tragedy until one night in the wee hours I asked God, Lord,
Where were you when one of yours was taken in such a terrible way? He told
me that He was there just like He was
there when Stephen was killed! Acts 7:54-60 and Stephen looked up and saw Jesus
standing on the right hand of God and I
knew that Rev. Dobson was not alone in that terrible thing! I hope that this will give you all comfort in this knowledge. Sincerely, Norma Martin-Fort Worth, Texas

I had the pleasure of teaching this fine young man in junior high. As a young man Clint had a gift for making everyone who crossed his path feel special...I shall miss that grin! Sharon you were gleaming when talking with me at home depot a few months ago about Clint and Laura and the wonderful life they had. My family is praying that your memories of Clint stay strong.

Dear Laura and all of the family, you are in my thoughts and prayers everyday. This is such an unthinkable tragedy that we will never understand. Clint was such a godly man full of life, love, laughter, compassion, integrity, and I could go on and on. I know Heaven is rejoicing but our hearts are aching. May we look to our Lord and Savior for strength during this difficult time. We will never forget you, Clint. You will be missed.

It seems harder after some time has passed when someone we love has gone.
Know that while I did not know Clint, my heart is still tied to those left to mourn. Bearing with you now, and praying for your peace. He must have lived well and done his work quickly for him to finish and go home so young. I'm 28 and headed to the mission field soon. Clint is an inspiration for me, and I look forward to telling him that in eternity. I'm so sorry for your loss.

My prayers go up for all of those left here who will miss this Blessed man of God and his work for the LORD, his family, his church family, and we the brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus who have never physically met in this world but will meet him in the Everlasting Life of Eternity in the loving presence of our Heavenly Father.
Praying that you all feel His peace, comfort and Joy surrounding, and engulfing you all.

Laura, family and friends of Rev. Dobson,
Our hearts are broken as you grieve the death of a husband, son, friend and minister. By all accounts, he lived out his various roles reflecting the love of Jesus and with the passion of a servant of God who is sure of his mission. There is no explanation for his death that will bring comfort. But our God is good, He is righteous, His purpose will stand, and Rev. Dobson is celebrating the culmination of his faith and hope in the presence of our beloved Savior. You are in our constant prayers. May God's peace bring you every comfort and blessing in the days ahead.

I read that one of Pastor Dobson's favorite bible verses was John 1:5 in his First Baptist Church Arlington online biography. It reads, "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it". Pastor Dobson's little church has been filled by so many people from every corner of this earth with such love.
To his bride and family and his pastoral friends and church family....you are in the hearts and minds and prayers of people who love you and people who never met you.
