Friends Passing Away


This was actually Ted's buddies, Albert and Darrell. Darrell passed away today. He had been sick for a long time and probably a blessing for him to be pain free and singing again in Heaven. Darrell's family was the Pastor's family. Bro Foster was the pastor of our church for.... forever, or so I thought. He was the only pastor I knew. He was pastor of the largest church in town. Jimmy Swaggert started out in the ministry at our church. Marilyn Hickey's husband was an associate pastor at the church. The Dewey's were associate pastors. Lots of well known missionaries were from our church.
Darrell and my brother were buddies... lifetime buddies. There were 5 Foster kids. One is still living. Darrell became a minister, like his father. He spoke at my mom's funeral.
This picture was taken at our house. The crochet doillie is at my house now. Mom made it. Take note that the bed in the background was not made, tho. Time is'a passing!
