SARGE
ADOPTABLE Pet of the Week! Sarge is a big baby boy and he loves to carry his blankie around with him. He is a sweet happy dog, he enjoys playing in the snow, zooming around outside but MOST of all he loves affection. A house with a nice fenced in yard would be awesome for Sarge to enjoy and explore. Sarge is a special dog and will be sure to give one lucky family lots of love and keep them entertained. Although Sarge LOVES people, he will need to be the only pet in his forever home. After he gets settled in his new home, he may be able to have doggy friends outside of the home. Sarge will need a feline-free home . It is recommended that any children in Sarge's forever home are teenagers. Sarge is 7 years old and weighs approximately 70 pounds. He has good manners and knows how to sit, shake hands and lay down when asked.

He had a long career as a sheet metal worker contributing his skills to several huge industrial buildings including the Pepperidge Farm Bakery in Downers Grove, IL; the Life Savers plant in Holland, MI; and the Upjohn Pharmaceutical company in Kalamazoo, MI. In 1963 he married Claudia Watkins with whom he had four children: Claudette Dee, Phillip William, Thomas Richard, and Theodore William. Most of his sunset years were spent with Joyce McGuire whom he loved and cherished. They lived in Martin, Michigan. Together they enjoyed antiquing, traveling to Florida in the winters and spending time with their blended families and friends. After Joyce’s death in 2011, Phil moved to Plainwell, MI. His favorite pastimes were attending sporting events and dance recitals where his grandchildren displayed their talents, trips to Plainwell Ice Cream Company for butter pecan and black cherry ice cream, fishing, and breakfasts at his favorite local diners. He also enjoyed his weekly card games, wine, and meals out with his friends. Phil was preceded in death by his parents Louis and Eva Salingue; siblings Angeline Noto, Robert Salingue and Sadie Holland; brothers-in-law Frank Noto and Wynn Holland; nieces Marsha Noto and Marla Salingue. He is survived by his children Claudette Lee (Lonnie), Phillip Salingue (Melissa), Thomas Salingue (Sherry), Theodore Salingue (Monica); grandchildren Samuel Lee (Tagin), Emalee Bruns, Mitchell Salingue, Joshua Salingue, Alonna Lee, Owen Salingue, Taylor Salingue, Jackson Salingue, Carson Salingue, Greyson Salingue, Allison Salingue; his brother Johnnie Salingue; sister-in-law Esther Salingue; nephew Rick Holland; nieces Tammy Almaroad, Lisa Thompson, Kelly Harshbarger, Sara Wilson; and many great nieces and nephews.

There arose disdain among those present when an unnamed woman poured expensive perfume on Jesus’ head (Mark 14:3-5). Jesus defended her act of kindness saying it would always be remembered as a memorial to her (Mark 14:6-9). There are several ways one can view this event as follows: Symbolically
Her gracious gift was an acted out parable of Jesus’ imminent death and burial. There is no price that can be placed on acts of love given in Jesus’ name. Jesus’ death on the cross was a clear demonstration of love’s extravagance. Practically
In the practical sense, this was the woman’s last opportunity to show her love for Christ. Remember the words of Charles Studd, “Only one life ‘twill soon be past. Only what’s done for Christ will last.” Personally
We, like the woman, may give to Christ love beyond measure and expect to receive grace beyond understanding.
Prayer: Dear Lord, help us to be extravagant in our love for You. In Your strong name. Amen.
In Loving Memory
