Pastor Robert Slaton passed away on Feb 21, 2019 at the age of 83. He was the Pastor of First Assembly of God in Amarillo, Texas (my home town) for many years while I was growing up. He later became the Superintendent of the West Texas District of the Assemblies of God. He was my Presbyter in 1974 when I was ordained at age 23. Brother Slaton was a true mentor and very important  in my early development as a Minister. He was an awesome preacher, teacher, pastor, and friend. He was a steady, godly example and very worthy of his position as a leader in the community and in the Assemblies of God. He was always very kind to me. I loved him and his precious wife Ann. People like this don't come into your life every day. I know his reward in Heaven is great and he had a glorious home coming.
