Jerry McNair Jr

November 20, 2015

my name is Jerry Mcnair Jr from windsor, ct and this man touched my life when I was a young boy. my dad was Jerry Mack and owned a nightclub in hartford. I was the oldest boy and was torn between my father and mother who had split up. I was 10 or 11 yrs old. I had no older brother nor example to help me become a man. I met rev. flemming thru my mother who started going to his church in htfd on tower avenue and we lived in stowe village. I admired him and wanted to know God because of him and he was patient with me and answered all my silly questions.he was a kind man. I felt God when I was around him.I never knew when I would see him but when there was a crisis in my family he would show up. he knew how to encourage people. I always wanted to catch up with him and thank him for being my friend but lost track of him. I only wish I could have seen him one time before he left. he doesn't know I met God and live for him now and preaching the gospel like he did. I guess I'll have to wait and see him when we all get together around the kings table in glory.
