Most Recent Reflection
View all 24 ReflectionsDick Morris was a fine Christian man and was also one of my roommates in college. I saved this page a long time ago because I always wanted to remember Dickie. We all thought he was a good Christian example and he loved Christ. He never caused any kind of dissension when he was among us. He was just a peaceful Christian man . I love Dick Morris and I know I’ll see you again, but I want to tell you thank you for your service to the state of Georgia and to the kingdom of Christ.
