Memories & Tributes

Before they got married, Tom and Lucette led my Sunday school class during my freshman year in high school in 1973-74. I remember Tom's kindness. He always made class members feel welcome. Those of us in the class were blessed by the biblical teaching and leadership of this wonderful couple. Rev. John Sandy
