Barbara Dillard!
What a wonderful and gracious lady. Although this Church has suffered a profound loss with the passing of Sister Dillard, yet the mere mention of her name transports one to a very pleasant place. A place of class, caring, goodness, grace and family. Might I also add, a place of femininity and Christian womanhood.
Sister Dillard loved this Church and it’s Pastor. She was a seeker. One who would delve into the richness and fullness of God’s word to broaden her understanding of the triune God. To the end that “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear” (Proverbs 25:11-12)
Sister Dillard sought the wisdom of God that she might impart it into the lives of others, and especially the young people of our Church. We indeed owe her a debt of gratitude for possessing that which is so uncommon and that is “Common Sense”.
We are grateful to God for the life and legacy of Sister Barbara Dillard, good member, good friend and classy lady.
Pastor J. Amos Jones
