friends throughout the years to come. Our prayers and sympathies are with dear Sister Huffman and son Johnnie and their many friends at this time of bereavement." *************************************
What He Meant to The General Church Rev. Spencer Johnson I wrote a little tribute for him in the April issue of the Missionary Revivalist. I'll read a little bit of it. It was my privilege to be with him many times. We traveled on tours for hundreds and hundreds of miles and many times we'd pray the entire trip, except for a few pawn shop stops. He'd take out time, that's the way he relaxed-going to pawn shops. It was my privilege to have him and Sister Huffman in our home just last summer. We had them in our home and they were really a blessing. It was my privilege to be in their home. We got snowed in one time over at their house and we had a wonderful time together. My children loved Brother Huffman. My girls loved him and my boys loved him. As has been said already in this service, he was loved by the children and he loved children. He did a lot for our church. The Bible Missionary Church owes a great debt to Brother and Sister Huffman. They did tremendous work in the early days as home missionary evangelists. When they first began the work, he had a large tent. He'd hold tent meetings and organize churches and he organized many churches for the Bible Missionary Church in the early days of our church and we'll always owe a great debt to him. One of the things that was outstanding about Brother Huffman, not only in spiritual things, but he was a man of great fellowship. He could take a joke and he was a man of good spirit. He had a name for about everybody and everything. I had a name for him. I often called him Moonface. There are a lot of pleasant things as I think back about it. I remember that time Brother and Sister Huffman and I were touring over in Pennsylvania. The morning we had that prayer with the fellow that was so tight the night before. What a time we had. I'll not forget those days and the time when he and I toured in the Northwest. We were coming up Santa Anna Pass and I told him we didn't need any chains. He said, "You're going to need chains." Finally we got to where we just weren't going anywhere. We were just sitting there spinning and I got out to put on the chains. He leaned up against the car and held it on the jack while I put the chains on. We had a lot of happy times together. He is in the glory world. He was a faithful and fearless preacher of the old-fashioned way of holiness. He was ready to raise his voice against sin wherever it might be. The Bible Missionary Church owes a great deal of gratitude to him and Sister Huffman. He is in a better world. I miss him down here, and I expect to meet him one day in the City of God. On that happy golden shore, where the faithful part no more, When the storms of life are o'er, meet me there. Here our fondest hopes are vain, dearest ties are rent in twain, But in heaven no sob nor pain, meet me there. By the river sparkling bright, in the city of delight, Where our faith is lost in sight, meet me there. On the happy golden shore, where the faithful part no more,
