I didn't know Clayton E. Revels; but we recently bought a Winnebago in the UK and it had his RV company logo on it, so I looked him up, it's travelled very far! Andrew W

Brother Revels was such a wonderful person. When Mrs. Revels was living and Bro. Revels would stand up in our Sunday School class at First Coast to give his testimony she would stand up to finish it. It was so sweet because they know each other so well they even knew what the other wanted to say, When the seniors would go on a trip I would always be Bro Revels date. My husband would never go. So Jack would do other things so I just told Bro Revels to come with with me and Becky an Al Spain. He was so funny. He always wanted to buy me something, but I always let him know my husband gave me money to buy want ever I wanted. But one day I said OK Bro Revels you can buy me something. He was so glad. He said what? I said I want the biggest coke you can find with lots of ice. He said I can do that. He was a very good person that loved the LORD.

A courageous gentleman of great faith and passion. My Dad (Dr. Benjamin Burnsed) regarded him as sterling friend and invaluable fellow soulwinner. What a terrific legacy!

Trina and Rick;

May God fill the void left with his departing. He certainly did a lot for me.

God bless,
