Loss

Dear friends, Some of you may not have heard yet. Devere went to be with the Lord last night around 10PM. He had a lot of complications, infections and he was not improving in his health. The doctors took a blockage out that was cancerous and they took about 2 feet out of his intestines. There were many other things that were not going right with his body and therefore he was in critical condition for over a week. God obviously had planned for him to be going home sooner than we thought. I understand he was 75 years old. He had a lot of love for all of us and we are going to miss him greatly. Good news, he is with Jesus right now and he will not have to experience anymore pain. There will be a memorial service at the Evangelical Church here in Sweet Home on Friday morning at 10AM. Sharon has indicated to me that all of Hillside is invited and our worship team will be involved in the service as well. Please pray for the family as they deal with the loss of a wonderful man of God. Peace, Pastor Matt
