He graduated from Gordansville High School, entered Campbellsville College in 1938 to prepare to be a Minister of the Gospel. There he met Earline who was there preparing as a medical missionary.

Both rejoiced in their privilege to serve God and His remarkable blessing on them. Both agreed they had an extra ordinary life as well as an unusual life together. He began writing as a child and continued during the high school years. As a freshman in college, with God's glory in view, Biblical research of and study replaced the fancied-dreamy thinking. The things learned went on paper, and for the first unrequired writing was about the 10 days surrounding the crucifixion and resurrection of his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. (Ten Eventful Days) During the early pastoral years, because of the people's need for Biblical truths he continued to write. Writing began in earnest and in larger (volume) when he began teaching in Bible College in 1957. This was done for his own and the benefit of the students. He has published over 50 books and pamphlets. He holds earned and honorary Doctor of Theology and Divinity Degrees from several colleges.

Sandlin, Jessie Lee DeBord

Our beloved, Jessie Lee DeBord Sandlin, age 94, took her last breath in the early hours of Thursday, June 9, 2022, at the Hospice of Miami County, located in Troy, OH, with her granddaughter Angela by her side. Jessie was born on May 22, 1928, in Jellico, TN, a daughter to the late Tyler DeBord, and Mossie (Davis) DeBord. She was the 4th of six children and loved her family very much. She is survived by one sister; Peggy Crawford of Nicholasville, KY, two granddaughters; Angela Sandlin and Katie Kilpatrick (Greer) both of Tipp City, OH, two great-grandchildren; Corey Sandlin and Vincent Rogers, one great-great-grandchild; Cole Sandlin, a host of nieces & nephews, and many other loving family members and friends. Along with her parents, she was preceded in death by her loving husband; Lewis Sandlin, two sons; Michael Sandlin and Patrick Sandlin, one sister; Jean Jeffers, and three brothers; Jerome Debord, Jack DeBord, and Jerry DeBord. Each loss was hard on her, but she never really recovered from losing both of her children. She always said it just wasn't fair to lose your children. That was one of the few things that ever dimmed the sparkle from her eyes. If you knew Jessie, you know she had a zest for life, a great sense of humor, and a compassionate heart for everyone she knew. All children naturally gravitated toward her, and she to them. Jessie would give her time, energy, money, and/or food (especially candy and treats) to help a child- family or stranger. She deeply loved her siblings and their spouses and children. All her nieces and nephews have remained close to her and showered her with love, attention, and gifts at every opportunity. We have a blessed family, indeed. Jessie could sing, dance, bowl, fish, play the guitar, ride a motorcycle, and change the oil or brake pads of nearly any car. She never met a stranger. Her disposition was naturally joyful and warm and will be greatly missed by all lucky enough to have known her. A storyteller by nature, Jessie loved to tell of her earliest memories growing up around Oneida and Jellico, Tennessee, and eventually, Booneville, Kentucky. Jessie and her little sister, Peggy, were the best of friends and roommates for over 20 years, after losing their husbands, until June of 2021. They loved to regale all with their tales of riding (or falling from) horses through the mountains, hauling logs with their daddy, playing in rivers and streams, fishing, collecting berries, avoiding snakes, as well as describing creative ways they survived the hardships of the Great Depression. In Booneville, KY, Jessie eventually met Lewis Sandlin, the son of a preacher-man. It is told that George Sandlin encouraged his son to talk to one of those DeBord girls, and soon after, the two went on a date. Lewis had just returned from World War II and had never learned to drive. She was a great driver, loved to work on cars with her daddy, and didn't mind driving to pick him up! She would eventually teach him how to drive. They shared a loving relationship of about 50 years until he took his last breath by her side. One of Jessie's fondest memories was deciding to get a motorcycle. Her little brother, Jerry, loved riding motorcycles, and he told her she could take a ride if she wanted. She said she thought he was just teasing her, so she took it for a spin and was instantly hooked. Later, when Lewis was healing from a heart attack in the early 1970s, the doctor encouraged her to take up a hobby to help relieve stress, and she decided riding a motorcycle would help. Apparently, it did help because she went on to own several and drove them from Ohio to Kentucky and back frequently to visit her mom and siblings. Her last year was a difficult one as her body was a bit weaker, and she was grieving the loss of her son, Pat. She came to live in Tipp City, OH, with her granddaughter, Angela. Pat's daughter Katie took her to church on Sundays, and she really enjoyed spending that time with her and Vincent. She especially enjoyed Pastor Denise Mealy, who came to visit Jessie on Sunday. Pastor Mealy anointed her with oil and prayed with her. She missed being with her sweet sister, Peggy, and wonderful niece, Nancy, and all her amazing children and grandchildren, but she was looking forward to being closer to her other niece, Natalie (and Dave), and her immediate family. Having her two granddaughters, great-grandsons, and one great-great-grandson around kept her spirits up and her on her toes. She laughed a lot, and she was doing well, living nearly independently. She was also being spoiled by all of Angela's dearest friends. Jessie was strong and determined until the very end. All the hospice nurses and the music therapist loved visiting her saying she was their favorite patient. We are grateful for their kind and loving services. Angela's beau, Lucas, was the apple of her eye. She liked to call him her boyfriend and was looking forward to riding on the Harley this summer. They joked together all the time. He was kind and loving to her as if she was his own grandmother. Jessie was a good Christian woman and left an example of love, kindness, adventure, strength, and generosity for all to follow. She will be greatly missed and never forgotten. Visitation will be held Saturday, June 18, 2022, from 1:00 to 2:00 PM at the Booneville Funeral Home. Funeral services will be held Saturday, June 18, 2022, at 2:00 PM at the Booneville Funeral Home, with Pastor Rob Morgan officiating. She will be laid to rest beside her husband in the Shepherd Memorial Cemetery, located in Booneville, KY. To leave the family a special message, please visit www.boonevillekyfuneralhome.com. The Booneville Funeral Home will oversee arrangements. If you prefer a donation in her honor over flowers, please consider: Hospice Affinity Care of Ohio, 7681 Tyler's Place Blvd., Suite 3.

Scrivener, J. Thomas "Tom"

J. Thomas “Tom” Scrivener passed away on November 13, 2023. Born on February 24, 1938, in Catonsville, Maryland, he was the son of the late Maurice Tilden and Elizabeth Knotts Scrivener. Tom graduated from Catonsville High in 1957 and received his degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Maryland in,1961. He was predeceased by his wife of 62 years, Mary Seale Scrivener, earlier this year. They made their lives together in the greater Baltimore area, where Tom began his career with Charles R. Scrivener Construction Co., a family-owned business. In 1969, he founded Calvert General Contractors Corp., a commercial and industrial independent general contractor. From its modest beginning, his company became a significant participant in the growth of the greater Baltimore area and beyond, as evidenced by a portfolio of sixty-seven distinct projects, produced over a 20-year span. Notable among these projects, were the construction of Civic Plaza and the major expansion/renovations to City Hall. Additional civic clients included the University of Maryland, the state of Maryland, the city of Philadelphia, the Maryland State Aviation Administration, the Social Security Administration and the United States Postal Service. Private Commercial clients included General Motors Corporation, General Electric Corporation, IKEA Properties, and Six Flags Properties. While each of these projects and clients contributed to the stature and reputation of the company, Tom Scrivener took special pride in the restoration of the Baltimore City Hall Dome, the construction of the training facilities for the Baltimore Colts football team, and the construction of the central terminal, elevated roadway, and tunnel of BWI Airport. In 1989, Tom formed JTS Corp., in Ellicott City, Maryland to pursue large scale residential developments in Howard County and surrounding areas. Notable projects include Wellington, in Prince George’s County and Parkside, in Arundel County. Tom pursued these and other multiphase developments until his passing. Tom spent his early years enjoying his family’s farm with his brothers, Bob and Will, in Calvert County, Maryland. There began his love of the outdoors, where he developed a passion for goose hunting, fishing, and crabbing on the Eastern Shore and Chesapeake Bay. The family took up riding and foxhunting in the 70’s and Tom served as Master of Foxhounds with the Howard County - Iron Bridge Hounds from 1985-2001. Early in the 70’s, he began his adventures in Wyoming. He started elk hunting in Jackson Hole with the Eastman family and eventually bought his first ranch in Dubois. From there, he started hunting The Teton Wilderness with the Fleming family. This was the beginning of an over 30-year friendship, full of hunts, raising cattle, and enjoying the peace and beauty of fireside camps and majestic mountain views. Mary, Tom, and Guinness: their beloved dog, also came to know the beauty and pleasures of New England. They bought a home on the golf course, in Biddeford Pool, Maine. Realizing there may come a time when he could no longer tackle the Teton Mountains or chase foxhounds on horseback, he decided to take up golf. The unintended consequences of this new hobby were the friendships that formed and appreciation for this special place, for the entire family. Tom is survived by his daughters Lisa Eden and Cindy Dwelley, their husbands, Jim Treptow and John, five grandchildren: Carlyle, Mariah and her husband Daniel, Thomas, Nathan, Olivia, five great-grandchildren: Liam, Bruce, Heidi, Teddy, Scout, and his brother Bob and his family. He became known to most of us as “Papa” and he provided many opportunities and experiences throughout the years. Mary and Tom were active members of St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church, Glenwood, MD and St. Martin’s in the Field, Biddeford Pool, ME. A family burial was held on Monday, November 20th. Plans for a memorial service, for Mary and Tom, will be announced at a future date. Memorial contributions may be made to one of their churches, or Gilchrist Hospice Center, Columbia, Maryland. www.haightfuneralhome.com

They lived happily for 25 years in Kings Mills, OH until his death in 1971. Widowed at age 43 years, she concentrated on raising their four children. After Estel’s death, Martha transitioned from being a homemaker into the working world. Martha was first a cook at Kings High School for four years. Her next endeavor led her to Valley Kitchens where, though she was 5’ and 100 pounds soaking wet, Martha worked as a Rosie the Riveter making kitchen cabinets until the factory closed in 1990. In fact, the very cabinets hanging in her home, were made by her own hands. When another riveting job wasn’t available, she became popular throughout Warren County, OH as Miss Martha, the greeter at Walmart, for twenty years. She was honored to be the Grand Marshal of the Kings Mills Civic Club Halloween Parade for two years. Her favorite hobbies included reading, embroidery, quilting, flowers, gardening, and canning the fruits of her labor. The family lost count of how many times Martha read through the Bible since she would complete it in only 10-11 months. While living in Alabama, she became a voracious reader, checking out and finishing 207 books from the local libraries. She was also a master baker of pies (especially chocolate), fudge, and pin-wheel candy. Martha is survived by her four children: Jimmy Darle Spencer of Kings Mills, OH, Bobby Lee Spencer (wife Sherri) of South Lebanon, OH, Patricia Ann Nunn of Guntersville, AL, and Johnny Ray Spencer of Middletown, OH; and eight grandchildren: Jimmy Spencer, Jr., Michael Spencer, Bill Spencer, Heather Smith, Stephanie Smith, Angela Spencer, Allison Spencer, and J. C. Spencer; and eight great-grandchildren. Visitation will be on Thursday, January 16th from 11:00AM-1:00PM with a funeral service at 1:00PM all at Oswald-Hoskins Funeral Home, Lebanon.
