Tributes

Oh Sue sorry to hear of Reg passing into heaven. The end must have been a very difficult time. My heart goes out to you and your family. Love Donna Stevenson

RIP Uncle Reg. The love and comfort you have given Aunty Sue over the years makes you one of the family. I will always remember your smile and talking to you about cows. You were a great man who will be remembered for all time.

Today we honored a man whose life clearly reached far beyond what many of us may have realized at the time. I only had the privilege of meeting him twice really, but one moment will always stay with me—back in June, as I was preaching, he sat in the pew looking up at me over his glasses, gently tapping his watch with a smile that said, “Pastor, let’s keep it moving.” It was light hearted, unforgettable, and it showed his warmth, his honesty, and his love for life. Seeing the turnout here today reminds us that a life well lived always leaves footprints in many hearts. To Sue, the children, and the grandchildren—your loss is deeply felt, and our prayers are wrapped around you. May you find comfort in knowing that his legacy is not only in what he did, but in the countless lives he touched along the way. A scripture id like to encourage you with The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18 (NIV) May God’s peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard your hearts during this time. God bless Ps. Juan
