I have often wondered where your Dad was. I remember at West Covina, the small baby that Suzanne carried with her as she continued her daily activities at the church. I presume that this child was you! Yes, Miles was a wonderful minister and a fine preacher. I learned much in my two years there with him. I gained much to guide me when I began serving the church in the Pacific Northwest. Thank you for telling me about Miles. Bob Brizee Dear Miles Acker:

Yes, he was a brilliant, wise, spiritual person. From the persons at Mercer Island I heard repeatedly about how he kept them spellbound by his preaching. In addition, we have friends here who knew him as the senior minister at Iowa City and spoke highly of him. He began with nothing except a small white frame chuch with a New England steeple and filled it with people is a few short years. I came to inherit and build on his awesome beginning. He needs a book about him! Thank you for your writing. Bob Brizee Dear Ann Pittinger:

My dad had an amazing way of connecting with people. Maybe the word "engaging" would be more appropriate. I was born while my dad was at West Covina so I don't have a memory of my time there. But I do know his experiences there held a special place in his heart all of his life. Dr. Acker was dad and he passed away 10 years ago as of this July.

His legacy in the church is well remembered! I am proud to be a part of that. I have all of the books he wrote, along with his personal bible that he carried with him every Sunday. He was an exceptional man, and we, as a family, are continually in awe of his wisdom. Thank you for your kind words of him. My Grandfather was Dr. Dunnington.
