My pastor has gone on to glory. I'm broken, unprepared, saddened and joyful. He was battling pancreatic cancer for about a bit more than 2 years. He stayed his course. He fought the good fight. He set the example of what a soldier and a christian should be. With much sentiment and emotion he will be missed.
Left to mourn and celebrate his life: a wife, 2 sons, 1 daughter, 1 sister, 1 brother, a host of nieces nephews aunts and uncles and his New Vision COGIC family.
I have exactly no clue what will happen to the church due to no pastor, but time will tell soon enough.
I celebrate you pastor. I love you pastor. I will miss you pastor. I will remember what you taught me pastor. I will cherish all the work you did pastor. I thank you for being my friend pastor. I thank you for being a father pastor. I thank God for you and your life.
In tears still yet wondering...

Give yourself time to grieve and eventually you will find solace in the memory and celebration of his life. I lost both my Mom and a good friend to cancer withing 6 months of each other. Believe me it gets easier. Keep writing. www.professorlocs.com
I don't know much about death or grieving. It's happened a couple of times but not enough for me to say, "Aha, I've got it."
I do know that this is the point to which we all must come to and it is the point where others should celebrate what came before so as to have made it all worthwhile.
First and foremost it's a Home Going so celebrate his life instead of mourning his death, he will always be in your heart and mind so celebrate the life he lived and how he touched the lives of so many including yourself.
Earth has no Sorrow that Heaven can not Heal. My condolences to you, his family and the Church of God in Christ family and members.
hooray, your writings on theater and writing much missed!
You have my condolences
