The dedication of the elder Gray's would imbed itself deeply in the spirit of Olive who would one day become the partner that Clyde Haney needed to lay the foundation that would impact Pentecost to this day. The same can be said of David who would become a real friend to his brother-in-law and himself become, without doubt, the most respected teacher of his day.

The irony here is, that in spite of his great dedication to the mission field while others stayed home, today Frank Gray would not be allowed on many UPCI platforms because of the beard he wore.

Thanks for posting this. CJH and DFG became best of friends along with being brother-in-laws. They agreed on most things, along with the 'light' doctrine.(Notice, I didn't say what they believed about the light doctrine:poloroid). Being older CJH had a big influence on DFG and during a time that DFG was being unjustly persecuted by the powers of the "White House" and was not allowed to preach at district functions, CJH was the only one that stood up for him. Neither men would be considered 'flashy' in the least but they were men of substance and integrity. I'm fortunate to be able to say I knew and loved them both. |
