I will never forget Mr. Loehr, he sang at my wedding 11-27-69 while he was a member of North Conway Baptist Church. The song he sang was "Saviour Like a Shephed Lead Us" I have thought of the song he chose to sing, how appropriate the words are for newlyweds and how beautiful it was sung. I remember Mr. and Mrs. Leohr very fondly, my sympathy to each of you
