What a BEAUTIFUL story of grace, forgiveness, and love I saw through this man in his latter days. As his “son in love” (this is what he called me instead of law) I saw a TOTAL transformed man and truly witnessed Gods love ALL OVER him. When we spoke for the last time, He said “You know? There is a thing that a man can carry around with him…It’s called pride…Boy try not to ever let it get a hold of you.” As I sat and watched the Holy Spirit fill the room in his last days, I began to think about that a little bit..Man what a struggle that is for us as men…I began to look at some things in my own life to where this was applying to AT THAT moment..My “Father in love” had truly given me a word from the Lord this day that I will forever hold dear to my heart. This man was TRULY a child of God now, He was absolutely FULL OF The Spirit, and I could NOT BE more proud to call him MY “Father in love” Mr. Bill Dowling, I am honored to have married your daughter, and until we meet again, I love you sir…I promise to take the best care I know how of her…Praise God He is forgiven and FREE!!

Written by: DonnaI am sorry for the loss of your husband, dad and grandparent. I remember him as a handsome teenage boy who lived in my neighborhood when I was a child. I am so thankful that he is now with Jesus and cancer free.

Written by: JuneIt’s a beautiful life ! One that included a fantastic and happy ending. I remember when you met him in grade school. I remember you as high school sweethearts and later many parties and times out in the boat in our young adult years, too! I was honored to be a recipient of not only his friendship, love and humor but his excellent culinary skills as well. I will miss his wonderful and unique sense of humor almost as much as his shrimp and grits! He was an excellent chef! I will also miss binge watching television with him too! He had such a knack for technology and GEARS of any kind! I am thankful to have known him and LOVED watching Christ change him and all of us altogether during our lives we shared with one another. I am so glad as he aged he grew closer and closer to Jesus. What a wonderful example for us all! My dad used to always say, “Don’t grow old without Jesus” and Bill made sure he kept that as a priority. My prayers are with you all as you miss him so much ! A ray of sunshine has left the planet and now he shines with Jesus in the heavenlies. What a guy! I was blessed to have called him cousin.
