We miss Brother Stine's smiling face welcoming us at the door at church. We know he is smiling in Heaven, now.

I'm so sorry to hear of Mr. Stine's death, but I know he is rejoicing with Jesus in heaven. This earthly body failed him, but his reward was to be forever with Jesus. My prayers are with your family.

Bro. Stine will be greatly missed by all that knew him. He always met you at church with a big smile and a firm handshake. He was an example of a great christian to many. RIP Bro. Stine, it wont be long and we all will be there too.
