MEMORIES OF -AND- LESSONS TAUGHT BY AL COVERT AS LIFTED UP BY MEMBERS OF BETHEL AND THE COMMUNITY
Descriptions of AL:
"A very friendly Christian man - always steady in his faith no matter what."
"Al was a lover. He loved God and all of us. He was not a great public speaker. He was not a miracle worker or a healer of the sick - yet God's love shown by Al healed many and brought them closer to God."
"Cheerful, welcoming"
"He loved the Lord and lived for Christ"
Memories of AL that are improtant to you:
"I showed him how to do the metal sign. We sat at his house one summer afternoon and drank coke and watched TV."
"His exuberance every time I saw him"
"His great gratitude for little things. He would so thank me many times for a card I sent him."
"A hug every Sunday and every time we saw each other."
Lessons that AL taught us:
"Al taught me that we must love one another. He always talked about his church family. We were all his brothers and sisters."
"To always love the Lord, not to mention everything he taught me subliminally"
"To be as Christ - loving as Al always showed"
How life is different because of knowing AL:
"To be loving, cheerful, open to all"
"Al is what Christianity is all about and not only did I spend time inthis life, but I'll spend eternity with Al and all the other Saints that have gone on"
"The difference is that wwe should all strive to be like Al. He made his mark and will be missed by all."
"I will miss him"
