Today we honor the life of a special gentleman who served with us at Asha’s Refuge. Sonny Skelton drove our bus to pick up and deliver students for our Thursday classes at Highland Heights Baptist Church. What a patient man! I will always remember his calm waiting while I searched out missing students or people who weren’t quite ready but didn’t want us to leave them, or while I sorted out confusion over who was coming with us. He had a little grin that let me know he was just waiting, not hurried or impatient, just waiting. I am so thankful for Sonny’s dear heart to serve Jesus by serving refugees along with us. Sonny loved Jesus and people. He’s a great example to all of us. We will miss him but we have the confidence that he is worshiping our Lord face to face now and we will join him someday. We pray comfort and peace for the Skelton family. Contributions in his memory can be made to Highland Heights Baptist Church as requested by the family.
