Editor's Note: Long-time pastor's wife, Debbie Talbert, was called Home on January 15, 2023, less than a year after being diagnosed with inoperable pancreatic cancer.  Our continuing prayers go up on behalf of Pastor Bud and his kids.  Meadowlands Baptist Church hosted Debbie's memorial service on January 21.  A link to the video of the service can be found here: https://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=12123222139437.  The eulogies below were shared at the memorial.

Tributes to Mrs. Foust and Mrs. Friesen https://wcbf.net/tributes-to-mrs-foust-and-mrs-friesen/ Fri, 04 Feb 2022 07:05:32 +0000 https://wcbf.net.foundationbaptistchurch.com/?p=131 The Whetstone

This issue of the Whetstone is devoted to remembering two faithful pastors' wives that laboured in Canada for decades: Ruth Foust and Verna Friesen.  Ruth's tribute was written by her friend, Debbie Talbert, and Verna's tribute was written by her daughter-in-law, Paula Friesen.  As you read, I trust your heart will thank the Lord for loaning these faithful servants to us here in Western Canada.  And I trust you will pray for Roger and Tim as they navigate new days without their lifelong partners.
