A Little R&R with RR
Last weekend we had the privilege of spending time with the church at Eldon, MO. We were overnight guests at the Louis and Sally Garbi home. Louis was out of town, but we got to see the wonderful Sally. Sally and I have been friends since girlhood.She is a friend who I don’t get to see very often, but when I do, we just pick up where we left off.
The Garbis, not too long ago, welcomed Sally’s father Richard Riggins as part of their household. Richard is a true treasure-trove of things spiritual. He has lost a lot of his hearing and his sight is beginning to fail, but his mind is still razor-sharp. He and Tom got to have a great visit over breakfast. They discussed some portions of the book of Revelation, and talked about some of their favorite historical writers. I didn’t get a picture of Richard’s face- I didn’t want to interrupt their discussion.
