Dr. J. Philip McLaren
May 17, 1941- February 12, 2014
A man who loved his family, his friends, his God.
A man that had a wealth of knowledge oozing from his fingertips.
A man who could make you laugh until you cried.
A man who would comfort you when you were sad with a great big bear hug and words of encouragement.
A man who wasn't afraid to knock some sense into you.
A man who loved nature and adventures.
A man who loved teaching and loved his students.
A man after God's own heart.
Doc's Rules:
(1) Eat when you can.
(2) Sleep when you can.
(3) Go to the bathroom when you can.
(4) If you like it, buy it because you might never see it again.
Psalms 107
