A Sad Loss

An elderly Christian gentleman and friend passed away this morning. Edwin was just that - a solid Christian, a gentleman in all respects - warm and soft spoken, polite and distinguished - and a dear friend. It is very sad. He developed a sore in his mouth around June and before you know it he was in the hospital unable to swallow. Chemo and radiation followed and we were blessed with him coming to share his testimony of God's faithfulness as he seemed to recoup and came home. It was not to be. He returned to the hospital and has now succumbed to this disease of cancer. He was a God-send to all who knew him. He will be greatly missed. He is now safe and secure in the arms of his beloved Savior.
