He lived a life of integrity, conviction, forgiveness, mercy, and most evidently … love. He believed in the best in all he met and encouraged without regard for his personal circumstances. Real in every sense of the word, he always encouraged his children to “Press on,” “Use Discretion,” “Never say can’t … say how can I,” when it comes to your relationship with Christ … “make it personal,” and “we’re not here to see through each other, but to see each other through.” He loved Hebrews 12:1-2.
