Mr. Lindsey


This is our good friend Mr. Lindsey who passed away yesterday after years of health problems. Please pray for the family. They are an amazing Christian family & Mr. Lindsey was a godly man. He truly loved and cared for everyone. Please pray for my mom as she went to be with Mrs. Lindsey last night & they asked her to stay until after the funeral so she is in Charleston with them. This is the entry Mrs. Lindsey put on his caringbridge website & she couldn't be more right about him.......

Dear Ones,

We prayed for a miracle and Dell got one. My precious beloved husband is now without pain and is whole. He was welcomed into the arms of Jesus yesterday evening.
While my heart is breaking, I would not wish him back if I could—he is free from pain. Dell fought a good fight for over 6 months. He endured things that I could never adequately describe…but he continued on always doing his part to try to get better.
But he knew where HOME was and he was ready. And while I will miss him more than I can express, he is finally home.
There will be a memorial service this coming Sunday at 3:00 PM at Miles Road BaptistChurch in Summerville.
Dell loved the Lord and lived his life to tell others about Jesus. He poured himself into young men to help build men who stood for Christ. He cared about teens that needed Jesus. He cared about young couples and wanted them to have families that glorified Christ.
Dell loved our family and made many sacrifices over the years to provide for us and to protect us. We could never doubt the love he gave us on a daily basis.
I will miss my best friend, but I know I will see him again someday.
Do not feel your prayers on our behalf were not answered. Today Dell is singing in heaven.
Much love,
Jayne
