I am saddened to hear of this great man's passing. He is one of the most exuberant people I have ever known. I loved hearing him sing "How Great Thou Art" at my father's funeral many years ago. As a child and young man our family often assembled in Toccoa and he always took a genuine interest in my life and plans. I am thankful to have known him and I will be praying for Aunt Betty and the family in the days and weeks ahead.
