My heartfelt condolences go out to Doug , Megan, and Betty Cummings as they mourn the loss of their dear loved one, Merl Cummings.
I have been graced to be in the presence of Merl on a few occasions, most notably at the annual fish fry at Doug & Megan's home in Waynesville, and each time in his presence was a relaxed and very enjoyable one. He had a great sense of humor and a God-given gift of making you feel welcomed and valued in his presence. It was quite obvious that he loved the Lord and others as well. I rejoice in knowing that he is in the presence of Jesus but he will be missed by many.
To the family, I pray that the Peace of God, which passes all understanding will be yours in abundance as you think of and remember him.
With the Love of Christ,
Brother Lee Bradley
