[Editor's comment: Ben Rose was a beloved pastor and preacher. He was noted for his expository preacher. He made the Scriptures come alive and he was able to make practical applications of the Word. Melvine and I enjoyed his preaching and his friendship. He and Beverly were our close friends. We often went out to eat at Fisherman's Galley in Eden, NC. We enjoyed each other's friendship and conversation. We laughed and we cried together. I look forward to seeing Ben (whom I called Bishop Ben Rose) in heaven. I plan to give to the Draper PH Church "Hope" Outreach Center Food Pantry. I am glad the memorial service will be live-streamed. I hope to see it.]
