A friend of mind, Herb Pink, 87, is a distant relative of AWP. Herb's father and AWP's father were cousins. Herb was the Clerk of Session at one of our OPC churches here in Southern California for nearly 50 years before it closed down several years ago.

Herb is a really nice guy and truly devoted to his Lord. Until he was well into his 80s, he was a chaplain with one of the police departments here - riding along with officers into the wee hours of the morning on many occasions.

Herb was 32 when AWP died in 1952 at 66. They never met, unfortunately.

So, I know someone who is related to AWP. You may touch me later (heh).
