I remember when Raymond as a boy and his parents came to the Mt. Zion church om their model A/T
car many years ago and then he left to pursue his ministry duties, but once they were completed, he returned to our church
and we were glad to have him back. Rest easy Rev. Kingsborough and say hello to Pearl.

my past husband at Weller United Methodist in Thurmont many years ago. After he retired he would come down forfriendship
meals and visits. We enjoyed his visits. He will be missed. Darlene wastler ______________ I have many fond memories of Rev. Kingsborough. He baptized my 2 sons. He visited

up in my driveway to offer his condolences to me after my husband passed suddenly in 2006! He made a special trip to Thurmont,
MD and I will never forget that. I always enjoyed seeing him attend events at Weller UM Church in Thurmont. A true servant
of God. Thoughts and prayers are with you.
