The Soup Connoisseur

My wife's and my condolences to Ruth and all the Berean Call family. Praise to Jesus for guiding Dave home. While on staff at a church here in the Finger Lakes Region of Western New York, I was honored to be able to pick Dave up and deliver him to the airport when he was here for conferences. (One year, we were doubly blessed because Ruth accompanied him.) Conversations in the car were always lively as Dave often shared recent research and our thoughts and ideas were exchanged. Dave was always a highlight of the conferences in which he participated. On the way to the airport, there was always one consistent stop-off when it was time for him to head back home. That was The Olive Garden Restaurant. Dave always enjoyed their homemade soups. Frequently, he would try a bowl of all of them, and at least once, he had the waiter mix a couple different kinds into a single bowl. Now when we stop at that restaurant, we are always reminded of Dave's love for soup, and his simple, straight forward approach in his walk with the Lord, and His knowledge of God's Word. Dave continues to bless our lives still. All glory, to Jesus!
