Today I learned of the passing of Sister Pam Gremillion who used to post comments on this blog under the name "woundedandbleeding." Our deepest sympathy to Charles, the girls, and their family. May the Lord bring you peace and comfort during this difficult time.

You may not have known that Sister Pam, as she always referred to herself, was nominated for a Dove Award for Bluegrass Recorded Song of the Year in 1999 for the song she wrote, The Old Love Letter. Here are the lyrics:
The Old Love Letter
I found an old love letter that was written just for me.
It told me how much I was loved so sweet and tenderly.
With a broken heart I read each line of God's love for me.
It was written by a nail-scarred hand at Calvary.
Oh how this old love letter spoke to my heart and soul.
I was captured by every word as I watched His love unfold.
With special care He wrote it down for all eternity.
It was written by a nail-scarred hand at Calvary.
I found an old love letter the pages stained with red.
I am yours eternally is what the post script said.
I treasure my letter that he nailed upon the tree
Like tears stained its pages every time I read.
Oh, how this old love letter spoke to my heart and soul.
I was captured by every word as I watched His love unfold.
With special care He wrote it down for all eternity.
It was written by a nail-scarred hand at Calvary.

Words fail at times like these.
May God bless the Gremillion family in a special way. Today Heaven is richer and the world is poorer at the home going of our sister.
Pam was a wonderful blessing to know. The love and kindness that flowed from her was from above.
I appreciated her willingness to confront those in church leadership who were not standing for Truth.
Amen to Wishihadknown.
Very sad for her family...she was so young!
So sorry to hear of this...she was such a source of inspiration.
So sorry to hear of this...we had emailed each other quite often during the 'outbreak' of the purpose driven movement which has devastated so many of our churches.
