Here's to My Heroes

This thread is dedicated to my heros. The men of God who planted the Word of God in my heart.

Thank you.

Yes. Paul Dugas was the editor of the Apostolic Contender and several books. He was the step-son of Andrew Urshan and the father of Tim Dugas of St. Louis.

Re: Here's to My Heroes

Many of the first people that come to my mind when I think of heroes are not preachers, but wonderful saints that I have had the privilege of knowing.

"Mary," one of my heroes, suffered with a debilitating case of MS. I watched as it took, first the use of her legs, and then began its insidious process in her arms and upper body. I learned to hate MS as I watched it steal the joy of life from this vibrant lady one inch at a time.

Mary was a faithful lady, a hard working unsung hero. She never preached a sermon or sang a solo, but her portrait hangs in my memory's hall of fame. I watched her care for a dying husband, faithful to the end, to the detriment of her own well being. She had to be lifted, carried, and wheeled into the hospital, but she was determined to be with him, and to care for him until the lingering end, and she did. She was a faithful wife.

After her husband's passing, she continued, by sheer grit, to live in the home that they had shared. She bought a van equipped with a lift, and found a couple who would pick her up for church, and she was there both Sunday services. She was a faithful saint and I will treasure her memory as long as I live.
