CHARLES SALTER – A PARTICULAR MAN

CHARLES SALTER – A PARTICULAR MAN

Charles Salter loved his wife and children intensely and without reservation

He talked about them, was proud of them and spent time with them

Charles loved Jesus and constantly sought His direction and guidance

Quick to share his faith – consistent in living a Godly life

 

His family and friends were of particular importance to Charles

Charles was careful not to complain-He didn’t want to burden others with his problems

He had a strong sense of honor and always did His best

He loved his community and his country

 

Trustworthy in his personal and professional life

He knew what it meant to give his word

 

Loyal to his colleagues, his employer, his church, his family, his friends and Jesus

Charles could always be counted on to be there

 

Helpful to anyone that needed help

Charles was quick to jump in and do what needed to be done

 

Friendly to those that cared for him and those that didn’t

He was always a positive factor in any setting

 

Courteous to the kind and unkind

He made a decision early in his life to be polite and well spoken

 

Kind to friend and foe alike

It was in his nature to be kind to everyone

 

Obedient to the Lord, and in all areas of his life

Charles always practiced doing the next right thing, period

 

Cheerful in his heart, in his manner, in his thoughts

He loved people and enjoyed being with them

 

Thrifty with his money and yours and generous to the Lord

He lived carefully and practically and provided for his family

 

Brave and courageous of heart- he did things right

Difficult situations and difficult people didn’t scare Charles

 

Clean of mind, clean of heart, Jesus occupied his thoughts

Charles knew how important it was to let Jesus guide your thoughts and actions

 

Reverent to the Lord – he was a man that understood we have an awesome God

Charles had a healthy fear of the Lord-the beginning of wisdom

 

A real man, a wonderful friend, a great colleague- now with Jesus

We are sad- heartbroken- we were blessed to have you – adieu

HIM – JOHN F. GIBSON, JR

HIM – JOHN F. GIBSON, JR.

John loved people

His first words – “How can I help?”

He was concerned about your needs

Always quick to pray for a needy student, friend or fellow faculty member

He would do his share of the work and yours too

John knew how to fix mechanical equipment and he fixed cars

For those who could pay, for those who couldn’t pay

Many hundreds of Seminary students had a car because John fixed it

 

John loved his family, deeply, thoroughly and consistently

They talked about stuff and things – he wanted them to have the best

He strived for them to be the best and they all know Jesus

John was quick to remind you that your name was carved in God’s hands

That Jesus didn’t have an eraser – Christ took us, kept us and walked with us

I can fix that John would say and would give beyond giving to you and for you

He was your friend without airs, no judging, always there

John was a special person that just cared for others like he cared for his family

 

A friend, a confessor, a good listener

His humility legendary, never self-serving

A hard worker, you came first with John

John loved the Lord, he shared Jesus

Loved by his students

An indefatigable and tireless worker

John didn’t see himself as a great leader – he was

He didn’t seek accolades – he has them in the halls of heaven

 

John was our friend

He cared for us

He loved us as best he could

Best regards to Jesus and your Father – We already miss you brother
