PHIL EUGENE EDMISTON, 53, died April 7, 2008. He is now inthe presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, because of his personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Phil was a Godly man of integrity, with strong conviction and discipline. He loved God's Word, studied and memorized it. He was a man of prayer. He loved spending time with his family, flying and playing racquetball. He served the Lord as a missionary jungle pilot in the 1980's. He met and married his wife of 23 years, Maritza, in Costa Rica in 1985. They served together in Columbia, South America with Wycliffe Bible Translators. In Columbia, the Lord blessed them with Jonathan in 1989. Jonathan and Maritza have been the center of Phil's life. He was a faithful husband and committed father. He was very proud of Jonathan, and was very active in his life. He and Maritza raised Jonathan in a Christ centered home, in the nurture and admonition of the L ord. He was currently employed at Federal Express. He worked well with his hands in building, and repairing most anything. He graduated from Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, Illinois in 1978 and from Moody Aviation School in Elizabethton, TN in 1982. He was preceded in death by his parents, Avris "Ed" Edmiston and Eilene K. Edmiston, as well as his brother Don Edmiston.

Rita
Ferguson Crocker
[Kidney Cancer,
November 20, 2005]
[The
following was posted by
Suzanne Smith Reynolds on

Rita
had been diagnosed with kidney
cancer, and she had one kidney
removed about 10 years ago. After
that, she had been cancer-free up
until recently. They were preparing
to remove the second kidney, but she
had a blood clot in her lung and
died unexpectedly. I have to say
that God saved her from much pain
and hardship. She leaves her husband
Don, a son Kyle, 25 (who has Downs
syndrome), and one daughter Kaitlin,
who is a junior in High School.
