Pentoney, Raymond M. (1929-1974) Honored 1988 Raymond is a classic example of an indomitable spirit overcoming severe physical disability. His perseverance in the face of adversity stands as an encouragement to all. Despite suffering from rheurnatic fever and arthritis, which confined him almost motionless to bed for most of his life, he continued to participate in activities of his church, correspond with service people, study by mail for the ministry, and compose many inspirational articles and verses that appeared in the Blade Times and are well remembered by the community.
