The Very Tragic Murder of a Family Member

My husband's cousin, Pastor James Carr of Greenville, North Carolina was

shot and killed in his home by a burglar.  We just received news of his passing.

Jimmy spent his adult life serving Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
He served as a missionary in Tanzania and Kenya with YWAM.  He
served as a pastor at Williamston First Presbyterian Church, Oakland
Presbyterian Church, Life Song Evangelical Presbyterian Church and
Covenant Methodist Church.

He was a devoted husband, father of two and grandfather of one.  His life
was cut short by a burglar who entered his home after midnight on
August 21st.  He was shot in the chest and his dear wife witnessed the
shooting.  She must have been so terrified because not only had her
husband been shot, but she was unsure if the gunman was still in their
house.  Jimmy died at the hospital.  I still do not know if the killer
has been apprehended.

Jimmy was a very fine and good hearted man.  He believed in
forgiveness and redemption.  He will be greatly missed by all of his
family, his many friends and to those to whom he brought compassion
and the Word.

I am dedicating this post to his memory.  Rest in peace Jimmy.  I am proud to
have known you.

Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
