[Editor's Comment: Melvine has known George and Ella Mae much longer than I have known them. She was a student at Holmes Bible College when they were students long before I met Melvine. We have seen George many times over the years at various church functions. He was a friendly man, always willing to help others. We know that George Chashwell will be greatly missed.
In the Book of Revelation we read these comforting words:
"Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on."
"Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them."
Revelation 14:13, NIV
