We will always remember Brother Mason as a friend, a fine preacher, and a devoted teacher at Zarephath Bible Seminary. My wife, Sandy, took several courses that Dr. Mason taught, to the point where our children when they were little used to refer to him as "Mommy's teacher" when they would see him or be in a meeting where he was preaching or leading the worship. We have appreciated especially our friendship with his daughter Glenda and her husband Charlie Friedly, who were Godparents for our older son Rob Turton IV when they lived in NJ. We recall that Elder Mason and his first wife, Sister Faye Mason, participated in the dedication services of Calvary Gospel Mission Chapel, Windsor, NJ, and he also took part in our wedding by giving the benediction. I recall that for awhile when I was younger and had a mustache, that he would tease me about it. He was like Barnabas: "a good man and full of the Holy Ghost and faith" - a real encourager to others of God's people!
Sincerely, Pastor Bob and Sandy Turton
