I will truly miss this wonderful amazing man of God . I've known him all my life . Being a member of Silver Mount Baptist Church and then joined Pleasant Hill some years later after the lost of his best friend Sr. Rev. William Lee, Jr. He shared many meals at my home when I was growing up with my pastor and others. Sung songs and prayed, while always smiling and given words of encouragement, hope and 💕 I will never forget him for being a real man of God and given me a hugs over the years saying "I LOVE YOU" when I need someone to talk too. Rest now Pastor and tell everyone Hello, I'm working on my Heaven Crown, so is one day we all shall meet again around the throne of God where we never have to say ... Good bye

I first met Rev. Cuthbertson in 1976, two years out of college, and what a wonderful experience we shared with the Young Adult Choir. Never will forget the spiritual emotionally-charged revivals and church services we shared for 5 years. Blessings to Elizabeth and the family. Always, Delores Massey Dewalt, former organist.

Pastor, you have poured so much love, faith, and guidance into the lives of others. May that same love now return to you through the prayers, support, and compassion of those who care deeply for you. May the fond memories you shared bring you comfort, and may God’s promises give you hope as you navigate the days ahead. Please know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers.
