    Even in our Physical Therapy class, with a dozen others with damaged hearts, you stood out as a man who knew that God had intervened and He was not done with you yet!

  3. Hey Paul Pierce: in the midst of reading your article, i looked at the writer.Paul Pierce. my wife Pat & i met you thru the Interlochen Bible Church when Pastor Bruce Craner & his wife Donna took a Sunday leave. you substituted. i think one of your daughters was present too. found out you, Carolyn, & family worshipped at the former Immanual Baptist Church on U.S.31 just south of TC. also you invited us to tour the Lake Ann Baptist Camp. & also i think you gave us some tickets to the dedication of the chapel there. am i correct?
