We Say Goodbye to a GBT

Mr. TrueSaved died April 25th.

“Mr.TrueSaved” was his email handle, and he and I only had a relationship via email. His given name was Tony Hedge.

Tony was a Great Bible Teacher in my book. We’ve been corresponding since early 2006. Tony’s emails were full of passion for God’s Word and for sharing it with the people God had put around him. Some of his students have learning disabilities, so he periodically queried me on new ideas to help them learn.

As a sign of God’s timing in these matters, the last email Tony received from me was about moving ahead, taking the next step, and walking in faith. And Tony has done just that!

We honor you, Tony, and praise our Lord because of His ministry in you and through you. You’ve been a GBT here, and the world is a better place because you follow-through on what God gave you to do. And we recommit ourselves to follow in this same way.

Man, this is sad for us -- great for him as he is now with the Lord. What happened? Was his death unexpected?

Pastor Rob, I don't have any more details, just a short note from his wife.
