To pay tribute to a great man...

This is just a note to pay tribute to a great man who passed away today.

Ron Wheeler.

He had been fighting cancer for a very long time, but his passed suddenly today.

Up until two weeks ago he was still doing the greeter duty at church, with his wife Elsie, as well as fulfilling his role as an usher.

He was an amazing contribution to Scarborough Corps ministry. Him and his wife were an absolutly incredible model of true Christians, who just freely gave to all those around.

I will always remember how Ron and Elsie dressed up as Santa and Mrs. Clause every Christmas for the Sunday school program to the delight of all the children and adults who attended.

And thats how I want to remember Ron. As someone who constantly had a smile on his face, and God in his heart. And the image I have of Ron and Elsie walking down the aisle of the santuary every week holding hands when they came down to usher for the time of offerings will always be in my mind.

Rest in peace Ron.
You will be greatly missed....
but You're in His hands now....
