Dee-Anna I have never met you but do send my sympathy to you and your family. I grew up in Bristol, TN and attended Paperville Baptist Church where his wonderful parents played an important part in my life. His father Paul was our wonderful kind and gentle minister who led me to Christ. His dear mother was a wonderful friend for many years as well. Harold's strong faith was inspired by his humble, true Christian parents that I had the good fortune to know. I knew both Harold and his brother Lloyd as youngsters. I saw Rev. and Mrs.Doering's faith at work when Lloyd was killed in Viet Nam. I can still see Rev. Paul Doering kneeling at our communion table and with such a sincere voice as he prayed before serving us communion. I am grateful for growing up in that little country church and knowing the Doering family. I am glad my friend Anne Hamed called to tell me about Harold's passing. God's blessings of comfort to you and yours.
