Faithful Servants

My heart aches from missing Dave, and now his dear wife, and my role model, Ruth Hunt. No, of course I do not sorrow for them, they are in Glory with The Lord they loved and served. I only sorrow that I can no longer pick up the phone and "ask Dave."

Dave Hunt became our friend and mentor shortly after we left mormonism after fifteen years. The year was 1981. I have no doubt that God put us together.

Dave spoke many times in the Indianapolis area, as well as brilliantly defending the Gospel at Purdue University against several opponents of the Faith. He was also a frequent plenary speaker at our Defend the Faith conferences that my Husband and I hosted in Indianapolis and vicinity. Always to the wonder and astonishment to all who heard. There were many people who heard Dave and were encouraged to go into full time ministry!

My fondest memory of Dave and Ruth? One night, at our kitchen table (Dave often stayed in our home) he and my husband began to recite poetry. After Dave had recited a poem that had a particularly tender line of love, he suddenly looked at me and said: "Oh, that reminds me, I need to call my wife Ruth!" Then the love birds cooed at each other in privacy on the phone!

I had to laugh when I read the Archon Conspiracy. Dave wrote a part of it at my desk and put the breakfast I served him into the story line!!!

So many memories, so much love and good friendship.

May Our wonderful Lord bless everybody at TBC as you carry the torch passed unto you by these faithful servants.We love you and thank you for the amazing and wonderful support.
