Mr. Womble (Papa) was a humorus, inventive and reverent man who was admired and beloved by his family, friends and community. As a devout follower of Jesus Christ, he was deliberate and purposeful in his pursuit to serve the Lord and those around him. He was an active and dedicated member of New Hill Baptist Church for the majority of his life, in which he often volunteered his time.
