FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR BRO. ROBBIE HOWARD

That title just does not sound right!  I have always thought that Bro. Robbie was immortal even though I knew that was not true.  Life will never be the same for this pastor!

Morris Bryant commented on the blog announcing Bro. Robbie’s passing.  I now sit typing while wiping the tears from my face.  I encourage you to read Morris’ comments.  I simply say “amen” to them.

The visitation with Cathy, Lynne, Vangie and the Howard family will take place on Wednesday, 2/6, at the Holder Wells Funeral Home in Moss Point, MS from 3:00PM until 8:00PM.  Why the early start?  I expect the crowd will be more than Holder Wells can handle.  So, folks who are retired, off work, et cetera are encouraged to go early to help with the crowding that will take place in the evening.  I would encourage folks to car pool as I just do not think the parking lot will be able to handle all of the cars.  Please not think that I am in any way encouraging you to not attend the visitation.  That is not true.  I just think Cathy & Lynne have made some really wise decisions in handling their daddy’s arrangements.

The service will take place on Thursday morning, 2/7, at 11:00AM in the auditorium of Friendship Baptist Church.  This was Bro. Robbie’s request and we are honored to be able to make it happen.  Please note that the visitation with the family and the funeral service are in two different locations.

Interment will take place in Machpelah Cemetery in Pascagoula, Mississippi.

One side note – Bro. Robbie passed away today, 2/4, on the 44th anniversary of his son’s, Eddie, passing.

MONDAY, 2/4/13

Happy 21st birthday to Hien Tran!  Lisa and I are proud of Hien!

Visited with Bro. Robbie after the service last night.  He was asleep but was still having difficulty breathing.  He is surrounded by his daughters, Cathy & Lynne, and other family members.  Pray for the Lord to be merciful and to give him breath!

Allen Glover is scheduled to have eye surgery this morning.  He is in hopes this will eliminate the need for glasses.

The funeral service for Merwyn Gunter will take place this morning at 10:00AM from the chapel of Mobile Memorial Gardens Funeral Home.  Bro. Jerry Hovel will be preaching that service.  Pray for him.  Pray for the Gunter family.

Joey Switzer’s son, Zach, has been admitted to the hospital with pneumonia.

The mother of Scott, who works at Joey’s place, had a stroke and is also in the hospital.

I made a mistake – imagine that!  Carla Kyser did not meet with the doctor last Friday but rather had a scan.  She gets the results this Thursday.

We had good services yesterday.  I did not look at the count but our evening service was pretty well attended considering the time change and the fact that they were playing a ball game.

Upward basketball games take place all week as the season comes to a close.  Kristy does a good job of coordinating this ministry.

I pray that you will have a great Monday with Jesus.
