Bro. Paul Sanders passes away
Bro. Paul Sanders, a UPC minister from Tennessee passed away early Friday (Oct 10) morning. Bro. Sanders was originally from Mississippi where he had pastored earlier in his ministry. He spent many years in the Tennessee District pastoring churches in Dyersburg, Humboldt, Camden and Smithville. He was very active in the District and was one of the beloved Camp Cooks for many years. Those who knew him knew him to have a sense of humor as he loved joking around and playing pranks. He was steadfast in his faith, even through suffering tremendously the past several years of his life.
Services were held Saturday at the Smithville UPC church where he last pastored, having resigned last year due to failing health. His body will be taken to Iuka, Mississippi for a visitation on Sunday at the Pentecostal Church of Iuka from noon until two, followed by burial.
Please keep his wife, Sis. Gaye Sanders, son Jonathan and all the family and friends in prayer.
My life was made better by having known Bro. Paul Sanders. He and Sis. Gaye are very special friends to me and my family.
