[Dialogue] Living Memorial for George Holcombe NOW

[H. A. Tillinghast]

As one who was not part of the Order I was not privileged to have the extended memories of George that you have. But I am enough of a ‘fellow traveler’ to have been in his presence enough to have known he has been a man of deep faith and missional intention. Continue to journey, George.
