William Harry "Bill" Pendleton, 4 September 1938 - 17 September 1999.

Our dad began studying with Arnold at the beginning of the 80's.  He had always been an avid bible scholar.  He always challenged us in the Word as children and later as adults.  Always calling posing the question, already knowing the answer but forever sending us deeper into the Word.  Dad was a member of the USAF Strategic Air Command and a Colonel in the Confederate Air force.  He always said he was flipping through channels on the big dish and heard one word "military" and that was from Arnold and that hooked him then and there.  When my family moved back to NE Oklahoma he attended Shepherds Chapel meetings in person from time to time as his health permitted. Arnold was on in our house 24/7.  Dad would be sound asleep and wake up immediately if Arnold was turned off.  The bible study was a great comfort to him in all of his earthly trials.  It was daily and first on his written to do list. We miss his love, wit and humor daily. My sister and I inheirted all his library of bible study books which we treasure.  I have a old, well worn marked up Companion Bible that will be forever dear to me...We found written after his death...I have two children that have eyes to see and wrote out a wittness that the teaching was the truth.  The seeds were being planted at the funeral from dads last hidden words.  We are of Scottish heritage and had a piper at the funeral that played amazing grace while the sweetest kiss of the Holy Spirit in the breeze came from no where into the tent around and out.  It was a amazing blessed funeral for a soul gone home, a "airman gone west."

This picture was taken in April, 2006 at the Chapel tape room, before we knew Mom had lung Cancer. My husband and children (who were dedicated to the Lord that day) are in the picture with my Beloved Mother.

 

You couldn't find a more devoted Child of God.  Thank you for your beautiful site.  She now walks with the Lord in Heaven.

My Moma.
She went to be with the Lord September 20th, 2007.
Her home going came after several days of pure torture for me as I watched her suffer, I almost doubted my God. Almost.
It was three days before she died that he gave me a glimspe of the world as we know it not. I watched as an unseen hand scattered diamond like lights all around my cabin and beautiful white birds flew low over my mother's room and disappeared over a small pond out back on a perfectly clear day. Not once a formation of six but three times and the fourth was a trio of the same that also disappeared in exactly the same spot.  I knew that her suffering was not because she deserved it but because He would use it to draw others to Him. She was precious and humbly loved God and the Truth. She taught me in my youth what really happened in the garden with Adam and Eve. I, in my later years would return to that Truth.
One week after her burial, I came home to find my computer frozen on the large words SEE YOU SOON. There was nothing else but those words. I had ask my mother to in some way let me know she was happy and I believe she chose to use what she knew would make me know. My brand new computer!
Mother, I know I WILL see you soon!
Thank God for Mothers!

This is in memory of George Thorne my dad.  He passed away July 26, 2007.  He was so special to us all and we will miss him so very dearly.  He loved his bible groups so very much and enjoyed friendships with many.  I know he is now happy with the Lord and that we will see him again. 

I love you daddy...

 

here is the last picture that I had that was taken at his grandson Anthony's birthday party...he sure loved his grandkids!

 

Here is something he sent me before he died.....

 

    LOSSES
 
Good morning dear friends,
 
One of the hardest things to deal with in life is the loss of a loved one. Long term relationships give us security and comfort, a hedge against loneliness, a shoulder to lean on, and a guarantee of love when we need it. When death comes to a person who's been a vital part of your lives the loss leaves a terrible void.
 
Then comes mourning. You may cry out, "God, I thought You loved me. You're supposed to be in charge. How could this happen?"
 
This is the time to come before Him and remind Him of His promises. He's faithful and just to perform them. 
 
Jesus said, "Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted." (Matt. 5:4). I've personally experienced this healing promise fulfilled several times.
 
Since then my faith is greater. I know He'll fulfill this too: "In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."
 
You have to lean on the Lord and not let go!

This is posted in the memory of the best friend I ever had..  She passed away at 10:15 PM June 17, 2007..

 

Marilyn had been a bible student most of her life..  She was misguided like so many by the traditions of man..  I started talking to her about the Bible and she thought I was crazy..She asked where I got such ideas..

 

I slowly taught her to use the Strong's and look things up for herself..  I told her if nothing else, to prove  The Shepherd's Chapel teachings wrong..

 

Sh wen to work and studied harder than I have ever seen anyone get into the Word..  She was quiet about it for awhile, then she started asking questions that gave me a clue to the progress she was making..

 

She kept up her studies and was going to teach some summer Bib;e School..  I was waiting for the local "Pastor" to disagree with her teachings and see what happened.. 

 

She took sick on Wednesday, went to the ER on the 14th and died on the 17th..  It was all so sudden that the pain is almost unbearable.. 

 

I know that grief over a loved on who went to the Father is us only feeling sorry for ourselves.  I know she wouldn't come back, even is she could, and I am so happy for her.  But it hurts so bad..

 

Here is a memorial page I made for her..  If you haven't already done so, please visit it and sigh the registry..
