Oh my Barbara, I sobbed at the thought of your suffering, but Jesus took you quickly and now you are whole!
Words seem so inadequate to express my love and respect for you, but I want everyone to know what great spiritual influence you
have been in my life and how since Mom is gone you brought great comfort to sit at your counsel and know, really know the presence of
the Holy Spirit!
When my mom led your mom to Christ, our lives met even at a distance and in years to come the relationship grew to be life changing.
Lessons you taught have changed my life! We were in the Northwest Territories and you taught something to the effect, you don't have
to work so many crazy hours to make big money. God is our supply and indeed how it has been...stopped working 3 jobs and sure enough
always had more than enough. The night you preached on the anointing oil and you got to meekness and how the Spirit hit me and I began
to sob and couldn't wait to make peace with someone in the church!
When you were living at Glory Temple and became the young people's leader...makes me smile...somebody 50....and how the young people
fell in love with you because you were real and you told the truth and they were most spiritual young people in the area. What a great
testimony to your life..but it was always that way! A natural born leader, anointed and never softened the message, but told it like it
really is, you changed many lives!
Oh how I loved to hear the stories of your travels and the miracles that were common to your everyday life! The story you told of how you
died and were at the feet of Jesus and how there was no pain in that place (just how wonderful it felt), but He sent you back....remembering that experience you shared, I knew that you were looking forward to that heavenly place of no pain!
There has been no one like you in my life! How you have blessed me over and over...when you would say "You sounded just like your mother when preaching tonight." Always words of encouragement, always!
Last, thanks for bringing your cousin, Richard, to campmeeting at Glory Temple in 1987. He has been most wonderful husband any person could have, always my supporter and my love!
What a joy to have known you, what a joy to have experienced your teaching and your love! You will be missed even more as the reality of this all sinks in...but someday we shall see each other again!
Thank you Barbara Coil for being all that Jesus called you to be!
