Dear Trinity Family,
“Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me. In my father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am, there you may be also.” John 13: 1-13
On this Easter Monday, it is with a heavy heart I have to share with you some sad news about the passing of one of our Trinity members, Mr. Len Ross. Len died in his sleep last night with a massive heart attack. It’s a shocker for everyone but nobody more than his lovely and devastated wife Nina Semper-Ross. “He was my best friend, my everything.” They were both at our Easter Sunday service yesterday and Len was trying to come up with a plan to get me back for my April Fool’s prank on Wednesday! The news of Len’s passing is sending a shock wave throughout our faith community and the town of Huntsville. Details of Len’s celebration of life service will be forthcoming.
Nina, may you feel the shawl of God’s healing love wrapped around your life that has suddenly changed forever. Please know that your church family is holding you close as you walk through this valley of death. You are held. You are always held.
“Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” Psalm 23
