However, I knew your father and appreciate so much the role he played in the life of my family. As of recent, I have enjoyed corresponding with you and reading your blog and probably getting a much more personal idea of who you are than I'd have ever have gotten as a high school friend. I too will turn 54 this September. My prayer for you is the same one I pray for myself. My prayer is that God allow you the wisdom to recognize each opportunity that is placed before you to make a difference in the life of another. My prayer is that you would have the discernment to rightly divide His word and the willingness to follow a new path if the Father should so lead. My prayer is that you would find a source of joy in each and every day knowing that sometimes we must walk through the darkness to enter into the light. Your steel has been tempered by the fire. Therefore you have been made strong. That strength will allow you to be more usuable as you travel the next 50 years, spreading the love of Jesus Christ our Lord. Happy Birthday.

Our families have been close over these five decades and I am so thankful for you, your brother, mother, father, and grandmother. I am blessed and honored by your words. I love you.

I will be 53 in October. Your family has been a blessing to me and my family for such a long time. I remember that very day that your mother died. I cried and cried and ran to my neighbers house to tell Louise Griffin. I can still see your Mothers face, I remember when i had my tonsils out she brought me a basket of gifts to open every day. I loved your father I remember Brother Marler as my pastor. He baptized me. He married my parents and my brother. He died on the same date as my father. He prayed at my father's funeral and he was one of the few people I remember at the funeral. I remember playing at your house on North Anton Dr. and still drive there occasionally. I remember your commercial on the USS Alabama. I remember seeing you on CNN. I know the blessing you have been to Simon. I love that we have reconnected in the past few years and am still waiting to visit you at the lake. I can't believe that I have known you for almost 50 years. Yes I have more questions than answers but its wonderful to know that I have friends like you that will be there for me to answer life's questions that allude me. I love you Malcolm. Yes we will always have questions but the Lord provides. When one door closes a window answers. God bless you and may he always keep you in the palm of his hand.

I learned that 11 months ago. As one who has had major (big major) changes is his life, I know that we are given the ability to adapt and even prosper (not in the financial sense)when they occur. So I will leave your questions for you to discover the answers to, with one comment. With the love that I detect on an almost daily basis that you have for your house and its location, I can't imagine you leaving it. Turning fifty four is wonderful. I learned that 11 months ago.
