Loved, loved this amazing couple at 12th Street Baptist Church. I will never forget working for your mom in high school and how could we not remember what mentors they both were in our spiritual lives. Heaven is a better place now... (Your dad had Wayne up in the roof of the church, walking rafters doing electrical work. Just picture that.. I could just see a leg coming through the ceiling.)Thank you God for letting them be apart of our lives.

Beverly, I was so sorry to hear about your Mother. She was such a dear! I will never forget her many daily visits to my parents when she was taking her daily walk. I know she is celebrating right now but I know that you will miss her as I do both my parents. Know that you are in my prayers and one day we will all be together! Much love, Beth Flippo Gabbert
