Rod Ripple (O:E About 1965 - 1977),  Bob Jones (Presbyterian Minister and
Jesus Seminar Fellow -Old friend of David's), Ellen and I attended David
Zollar's Memorial Service in Pittsburg (wearting our hats with everyone
there).
It was a fine celebration complete with the Magnolia Dixieland Jazz band who
played several medleys and "When The Saints Go Marching In" at the end.  The
front of the bulletin had a quote from Bishop John Shelby Spong:
"I am so busy living that I don't waste much time trying to figure out what
happens after life.  I believe in life after death but I can"t define it.  I
believe in life before death and intend to live it."

The Scriptures were Psalm 69 and Micah 6 favorites from his recollections of
EI days and we sang a favorite hymn "Come, Labor On"  His two sons and
daughter presented recollections of their father and several of the
grandchildren were accolades in the service.

We had all attended John Dominic Crossan's presentation  on Roman Imperial
Theology  the evening before. David would have been there with us but
canceled out a week and a half ago.

Grace and Peace

David Rebstock
