Sunday, November 23rd, the day of Allan's memorial service, turned out to be a beautiful, crisp day and full of God’s love. We had the joy of the presence of family and friends and the knowledge that dad’s life was a life well lived. The Rotunda, Main Lodge, and Good Shepherd were all packed. Words could not express how much dad had been a spiritual father to so many.
We paid tribute to the patriarch of the family and the founder of CRC with sadness and joy. Pastor Allan was a spiritual giant in his day, who fulfilled God’s purposes for his life in his generation. We are convicted and convinced that we can do no less for our Savior. Allan was an example to us. Now it is up to us to pick up the baton and carry on the task, being godly leaders in our areas of influence in our day. As Allan always said, “You are no ordinary person; God is going to use you, that you will see people with His eyes, hear people with His ears and love people with His love. Remember, the best is yet to come!”
All of the family would like to thank you, our dear friends, from the bottom of our hearts for your love expressed in your kind posts, phone calls, memorial gifts, and letters. We love you, and may God be with you until we meet again!
