With Deepest Sympathy. I wish i could express the sorrow I feel, just knowing that you are bearing a loss so profound...Your love one is in heaven wearing wings of Gold waiting for the day when your hand he will hold. He was a wonderful preacher and man of God. He helped me endure the loss of my brother and parents. God Bless you and wrap his ever loving arms around you.

So many memories of Brother Pollard. I literally grew up in his church. I'm 43 now. Though an adult, I cried when my mother told me he'd passed. It was years later before I realized how his life was an example that helped form my person. A true man of God who's now in the presence of the Lord.

My deepest regrets to Donald's family in the loss of their loved one. Donald is my cousin and thru the years we would get in touch with each other. He spoke the service at my father, Gilmer (Jim) Pollard's funeral service. He is now in heaven with God and his other family members.

Don was family for me and my son David. He was so much help for me when my husband passed away. He has been an important part of my family for many years. We will miss him so much. God has taken a Saint home. I know he is there with a smile on his face and the Joy of the Lord surrounding him. My world will not be the same without Don in it.
