I know Moulton Baptist Church has really missed Gary Wells since he went home to be with the Lord, along with the host of friends he made across the years. I still count it a great privilege to have been his Pastor for a few years, and he was always very kind and helpful. As the Psalmist said: "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His Saints..."
