Almost Blueberry Picking with a GB Member

[TrueTomHarley]

For the longest time I confused him with a David (I think) Slutz, with whom I was assigned blueberry picking detail out of Wallkill in perhaps 1976. Someone donated blueberries- pick all you can, and Bethel quickly assembled a crew of 6. I and one other because we were visiting and had nothing else to do; David and 3 others because they had just graduated from Gilead and had nothing else to do. Even now I sometimes think it was Splane, not Slutz, but I'm probably mistaken. We spent several delicious days trading stories, experiences and plenty of riddles. The one that sticks is when he told of his volatile student offering his first comment. He braced himself but it was not enough: "I want to thank JEHOVAH GOD for sending his servant DAVID SLUTZ to my door to bring me THE WORD OF TRUTH!!" David melted into the floor.

I haven't completely rounded the learning curve here. Trying to delete a duplicated post, but all I can do is to edit it.

Yes.

I moved your other post under "David Splane" here since it was a duplicate.

Notice that David H. Splane shows up in the "Similar Content" box to the right. Aren't databases great sometimes? ;-)
