57 Years

Yes, 57 years ago right here in Ferndale, we were married at the First Baptist Church.  In just 3 years we were off to Brazil for 25 years.  Then back here for 18 as pastor of the above church, after which we were called to represent Shepherds Home, where our mentally disabled daughter, Joy has lived all these years. Now we are back here for our "sunset years". Our son Rawlie was born in Brazil and Joy in Peru so you can see we have an international family.  We rejoice in Margie's recent improvements and credit this to a host of friends who faithfully pray for us and our Heavenly Father's gracious care of her. We give the Lord all the honor for our glorious 57 years together, serving Him together in the 3 main ministries He opened for us along the way.  Thank you all for being our friends, supporters and prayer warriors.  We still count on you and thank you very much.
