my thoughts and prayers go out to you Leda-Roy was a good friend.
Bro. Roy was a friend of my family but more than that a child of God who loved His Church. I am wondering if Bro. Roy and daddy are in heaven talking quail hunting stories. Especially the story of the day the birddog ran up to us, looked at us and just fell over dead. My prayers are with you Sister Leda.
One of the greatest contemporary examples of faith that I have seen in my life is the faith of Bro. Roy and Sister Leda Greenwalt. Though stricken with heartbreaking family tragedy many years ago, their faith remained strong in the Lord. Their faith is reminiscent of Job’s example of faith when Job declared “Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him…He also shall be my salvation.” (Job 13:15-16) Bro. Roy was an inspiration and encouragement to me and to others who will cherish his positive legacy. On more than one occasion I have heard his family describe him and Sister Leda as their spiritual foundation example of hope in Christ. Thankfully, Christ has promised all believers eternal life where we shall be with Christ and with fellow believers forever. In the meantime, our prayers continue for Sister Leda and the family.
