Goodbye, Leo


Leo Waggal, a wonderful friend to everyone at Clough Pike Baptist Church, went home to be with Jesus last week.  Although we are all sad to lose him, Heaven will be a little sweeter knowing that we'll get to see Leo again when we get there!

Since Leo was known for his signature bow ties, yesterday there was a group of men who wore bow ties in Leo's memory.  I'm sure Leo would be smiling about that... 
 I want to especially thank Leo's daughter June for gifting our family with one of Leo's amazing clocks that he made all by himself.  It's unbelievable that a man who only had vision in one eye could work a scroll saw like that!  Since June says that this clock is both a "thank you" and a "going away" gift, we've promised to give it a special place in our new house in Rocky Mount.  We will think of Leo every 15 minutes when the clock chimes.  

We love you, Leo.  See you soon....
