DEDICATED lo the MEMORY of DR. ROBERT L. MOYER Wc shall always cherish mi our hearts the memory of our beloved D ean, Dr. Kobcrl L. Moyer, never forgetting his ardent love for the Word, his concentrated study of the W ord, and liis com¬ passionate fervency in preaching the Word, He loved the Word of Cod with a sincere devotion and unfailing faithfulness. Ills life exempli¬ fied the truth of Paul’s statement, “For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ; for it is the power of God unto salvation. 77 Dr. Moyer ' s prayer was that all men might believe the truth of John 3:36, “He that bclicveth on the Son hath everlasting life.” He studied the Word daily to sec if these things he so. 77 His study was thorough and exact and many were his Bibles, the covers of which became threadbare and faded, Indeed he practiced what he preached when he taught us to “study to show thyself approved unto God.” He preached the Word Ll in season and out of season.

I love you, sheep of God . hut would rather depart to be with the shepherd of us all. 9 So Dr. Moyer passed “through the shadow into the sunshine, through the black¬ ness into the brightness, through the darkness into the daylight, through the gloom into the glory, through the twilight, the evening star, and the dark, into God ' s tomorrow . 33 His last picture Wc seniors fed particularly privileged to have been in Dr. Moyer’s classes during his last year. The alumni may have enjoyed his teaching a year longer, hut it was our privilege to have had the benefit of the last fruits of his ministry. May God grant to us, his students, a like desire to love, to study, and to preach the Word. We shall always cherish the memory of these words from one of his last sermons: 5
