  4. To the Family of George Southland, I ran the Transport For Christ Truckers Chapel in Milldale, Ct. It was a great joy to have George as a Chaplain on the team. George helped in many ways to make the ministry successful. God used George in a mighty way to a bring many truckers to a saving faith and knowledge of Jesus Christ. He has been welcomed with open arms into the presence of His Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. He will be missed. I have the joy of being with George soon in the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ.
