We just learned of our dear brother, Reverend Darryl Bell. He was a friend from old S.W., and the Lord raised and matured us both in the gospel during the same time. He was always a kind, thoughtful, generous, and loving man. We know for certain that he loved the Lord! He will be missed. We believe that he has received his crown. To be absent from the body means to be present with the Lord for those in Christ. Darryl fought a good fight and he finished his course. God bless his wife and family!
