[Oe List ...] John Epps completed life

[rjhutchinson48 at gmail.com]

Dear Ann,

We celebrate with you and everyone, John’s completed life. We remember the profound contribution John made to the church and society with local people. We have many memories of our time together in KL and Australia, in particular Cronulla and the Great Ocean Road journey. Our Other World pictures as depicted by an Aboriginal artist friend, remind us of John’s tremendous edge thinking and theological gift to history.

Grace and Peace

John and Robyn Hutchinson

G’bye John.  Thank you Ann

 

This morning before dawn I was out in our back yard. For some reason I was compelled to sing out, “Holy, Holy,Holy. . . 

Now I know why.

Dear Communion of Saints, 

 

John's earthly existence was completed on Wednesday morning, June 24, 2020.

 

His last words were "thank you," the same words he wrote to you on June 9 in his brief comments, "Thanks for the memories."

 

For five days we were privileged to be in the lovely Denver Hospice which enveloped us with grace and compassion.

 

I am grateful for your many comments of appreciation for John in response to his "Last Collegium."  

 

His remains will be interred at the Montview Presbyterian Church Columbarium in Denver.

 

Grace and Peace,

 

Ann
