The obituary of Pastor Bill Fitzhugh, Pastor of Family Church in Pine Bluff, Arkansas is incorrect!
In fact, it isn't just incorrect, it is blatantly false.
I know because Bill Fitzhugh was my father, though he tried and now apparently someone else is trying to keep it a secret.
Bill did not marry his high school sweetheart peggy as stated. He first married my mom, Sandra Gail Davis (maiden name) and had 2 children with her.
If he had married just peggy then neither myself, Greg Roberts, nor my sister Tammy would exist.
The obituary also fails to mention his grandchildren: Colton, Travis, and Danielle.
If you haven't read my dad's obituary you can do so by clicking BILL FITZHUGH OBITUARY
While I'm saddened learning the news of my father's passing on October 12, 2014, I'm also upset that the facts were blatantly disregarded here.
You see, my mom wasn't just a good mom, she was a good person too. And it is for this reason that I cannot let these facts go unnoticed.
She was always the one person we could count on, no matter what. And our grandparents, John and Frances Davis helped us and were appreciated more than they will ever know.
I'm talking about good, honest, hard working people who actually stood for something.....DOING WHAT WAS RIGHT!
Not spineless go along to get along, fake people who choose to keep following the same path.
I can't stand anyone who goes to church claiming to be a christian, and then lies and lives like they never stepped foot in god's door!
Yes, I'm calling whomever wrote the obituary, and those who aren't speaking out about it liars!
Think about it...put yourself in my shoes for a moment. Would you just sit there and let people tell lies to your congregation?
Or would you step up, do what is right by setting the record straight. Letting others know the REAL TRUTH and none of this "cover it up" political maneuvers to sweep it under the rug.
That's one of the biggest problems in today's society is no one stands up and speaks the truth, regardless of what others think.
I've tried for years to reach out to my dad, Bill Fitzhugh, so at the very least we would know one another should something happen.
Now I, nor my sister Tammy, will ever have that chance.
God knows the truth and he will deal with you when the time comes.
May you rest in peace dad.
Your flesh and blood son,
Greg
