David was a classmate and friend through
Senior College and seminary. His resonant laugh was always from the heart. Even while ill he was cheerful and encouraging. I will miss him. To Connie and family, I share your loss. Edward Arle

Pastor Fielding was a wonderful colleague in the ministry. I filled his pulpit many times when he was away. His dedication to the Lord was a great inspiration.
