My heartfelt and sincere prayer is for love, healing, and peace as the family unites together to accept and embrace the passing of Mr. McAffee. Life moves swiftly, and often no one can truly prepare us for moments like this.

May God inspire and comfort each of you, strengthening your individual trust in Him, knowing that He understands our beginning and our end in this earthly existence—and beyond, as we return to the source, our Creator, and ultimately our true home.

My Sincere Condolences to the family, my family have been a member of ENCF for many years and the time that I spent with Bill was always fun and rewarding there was always a story or a joke while we were working at the church together. He was a mentor to me as he was to many at the church. I apologize that I will not be able to make it to the service due to me working out of state that day, but my thoughts and prayers are with the whole family during this time. I know he is with Lorraine and Praising Our Lord in Person. No more pain, no more Unsteadiness, and a Golden Set of Golf Clubs getting Eagles on every hole. God Bless you all
