Larry and Ellen's "Last Lecture" at the Vineyard NW

Many new and old friends came to cheer Larry and Ellen on to their new location in Florida. These photos show Karen and myself along with Rich Halter and Larry, Ada Halter and Ellen. On the dais are Larry, Ellen and Ps Van Cochrane.

The tradition of having a "Last Lecture" is long and honored in colleges, churches and groups. It does not mean the people speaking will stop teaching and preaching but it signals a time of transition from one venue to another. I gave my "Last Lecture" at the University of Cincinnati in the Spring of 1973 and have given thousands of talks since then.

Larry and Ellen spoke yesterday the last time as formal members of the Vineyard NW staff. I hope and pray it will be just one more in a long line of additional talks about their Savior.
