He was an evangelist but would always say “I’m not a Preacher, I’m a teacher,” and that could not have been more true. Oop was a lover of people. He would get your attention with his strength and lead you to Jesus with his heart. He was a friend to the friendless and could teach you how to forgive. Oop was a jack of all trades but his true passion was farming. At the age of 40, he went back to school and taught himself how to read. Eventually earning a Bachelor’s degree, graduating Magna Cum Laude with recognition in the National Honors Society. He was truly an inspiring man.
