Edward William Carmichael

Without question the greatest Godly influence in my life. Thank you Ed for teaching us how to fall in love with our lord and savior Jesus Christ

I remember Ed when he was Pastor at Denbigh Baptist Church in Newport News, Virginia. He was a wonderful person and the best teacher that I've ever listened to. He officiated my wedding in October of 1968. I've just learned of his passing and am saddened by this news.

Faye,
It wasn't long ago that Ed preached at my mom's funeral. He was such an encouragement and example to me and my family. My parents both loved his Sunday School teaching. Imagine the reunion they had in heaven!
Love and prayers, Nancy McMahan

Dear Faye –
I just learned of Pastor Ed's passing. You and Pastor Ed are two of the most special people to have ever come into my family's life. What a kind, loving and gentle man he was… I feel pretty qualified to make that statement as I saw these characteristics firsthand during the years that I worked with him at Salem Baptist. He always told me that I did not work “for” him; I worked “with” him. I will always be grateful for those years. And I will always think of the two of you when I look at my beautiful tanzanite from your trip to Nairobi. (What a special 20th anniversary gift that was.) God Bless You, Faye. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I wish I could have been there today to share with you, the celebration of the life of dear Pastor Ed.

Please accept our deepest sympathies for your loss.Over the years I've told many people how much I thought of Pastor Carmichael, and how I missed having him for my Pastor.I will always remember him as a wonderful Pastor and man. God Bless you, we'll be praying for you.

Dear Faye,
I want you to know that I will always love and cherish my memories of Pastor Ed. He was the one who lead me to Jesus in my den in Goochland, Va. I always felt that you and he were such a lovely Christian example of patience, love and marriage. My children, Erica and Amber, remember both of you with foundness as do I.
I know that you will miss him so and pray Gods comfort will surrond you like a nice warm blanket. I am thankful and excited that Pastor Ed is now in Heaven without pain and suffering and able to be with the LORD.

We love you here in Goochland County Virginia,

Dear Faye, we too thank our Lord that He allowed us to have Ed as a Sunday School teacher many years ago. He was a most joyful Christian filled with the love of the Lord. Ed's care and patience for us all will never be forgotten. You two have been roles models for us and countless others. To God be the glory ! We will keep you in our prayers. Love, The Kingsley's

Our family has been blessed to know Ed through Gate City Baptist Church. He was a warm, caring, godly man, and he and Faye are our role models.
To Faye and the rest of the family, we are praying that God will give you comfort and strength in this time of great loss. We love you.

Faye and family, sorry to hear about Ed's passing. It came as quite a shock. Spoke to Ed only a few weeks ago, about your plans on relocating to Friends Home. The Good Lord must have something special in mind for him to do. You and your family are in our prayers.

I don't know that any man has ever had a greater impact for the lord in Goochland Co. than Ed Carmichael. He taught us to love God's word.

Faye and Family,

My sincere condolences to you and your family. This is quite a loss. I visited Sunday school from tim-to-time and was always inspired by Ed's teachings. He was a great Leader and Counsellor.
My thoughts and prayers will be with you all through your time of grief.

God bless and may His love enfolds you.

Faye and family, this is the hardest loss I've had to face -- my love for Ed was just that deep. I consider him to be one of God's most special blessings in my life. I just can't find words to express the feelings I have over all of this; I'm sure you can relate. I love you and am praying for your continued strength and comfort.

To Mrs. C and family, I will always remember the years you spent @ Salem Baptist and how you both impacted countless number of lives during Pastor C's ministry. He will be missed for so many reasons. Praying for comfort now. Sending you my love and deepest sympathy.
