ALT Rev. John W. Harrell, my guiding voice in ministry, my counselor in times of chaos, my constant companion of preaching, was called to the celestial shores last Friday. Nothing that has been said, nothing that could be said, or that ever will be said, could possibly possess the eloquence, the expressiveness, or the sufficiency to encapsulate the profound depth of admiration and affection with which I regard Bro. Harrell and his family. He loved his family, his friends, and spiritual flock. In the grand narrative of life, each man aspires to write a story of a well-lived life, Bro. Harrell did just that - he wrote the last line of the last chapter of the last volume of his life - and he did so with unparalleled grace and nobility.
