Deaths Of HAC Students

I learned today that Bob Murillo died last week. Bob and his wife had run a successful Christian orphanage for decades in Mexico's second-largest city.
We had both worked at different times for Dave Hyles. We agreed that we had learned useful things from him, and neither one of us had known of his immorality.
His funeral was held at FBCH.
Folks, I'm sorry. I posted this and I am unable to modify or delete it. Bob and I worked together briefly several year ago, but we lived about two hours apart. His orphanage did well, and he will be missed. We spent some time discussing our time with Dave Hyles, and we both agreed that he kept his sins well-hidden from us. Bob himself, as well as his family, were all Godly and enthusiastic about serving the Lord here in Mexico.

Correct on Bob and Joy being stellar people. Also correct on DH JH HAC FBCH in their ability to cover sin. I left in 87 not knowing about what had gone down with DH in Indiana and knew very little of his Texas escapades.
