Yesterday the world lost another great man - Nelson Hallock.
Nelson & his wife Connie knew me from the day I was born. They were long-time members of the Bristol & Williston SDA churches with my family, & they were like grandparents to my brother & I.
Connie & Nelson retired to TN just before I went down for college - God knew I needed that connection to home.
Many weekends were spent together reminiscing about Vermont, listening to them tell stories of New York City, giggling over inside jokes we had, & trying different restaurants in the area.
I will miss Nelson's laugh, him teasing Connie just to make her scold him in Italian, his stories...
“He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
~ Revelation 21:4 ~
