Our family has so many wonderful memories of Mr Dinkins. His dedication to Southwest Baptist Church, his family, and his church family is unparalleled. Mr Dinkins was a man who spoke what he believed, and acted in accordance with his beliefs. He ran the race set before him with perseverance, and fixed his eyes upon his Lord. He is an example for us all to follow. We knew him not only as a leader in our church, but also as a friend outside of church. He even drove the school bus our kids rode to Kirkwood Middle School. He kept those kids in line and probably had the most orderly bus of all. But the kids (not just my kids, but all the kids) still loved and respected him! Mr Dinkins, you are loved by many and will be missed by all who knew you. Save us a place in heaven for the day is coming when we will see you there. Well done, faithful servant. You fought the good fight, finished the race, and kept the faith.
