Pastor and Mrs. Engel are angels. They helped my family through a loss and were there for us every step of the way. I honestly am not sure what we would have done without them. I have so many fond memories of him. Pastor Engel was the kindest man, so soft spoken, but yet firm. He tought me the foundation to my spiritual life and for that I am ever grateful to him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Pastor Engels was such a kind and loving man. I sometimes went to the Aberdeen Avenue Baptist Church for his services. My Aunt Kathy (Buchanan) Jones was dearly devoted to that church and Pastor Engel. Heaven has gained and the world has lost a wonderful person. My sympthany goes out to his family during this time of grief.

Brother Engel, we will miss you!
He was always "Brother" Engel to the Schoonmaker family, from the time we moved to Aberdeen in 1958, when I was a boy, till I saw him, last, on the afternoon before he died, he was a brother in Christ.
He was also a true pastor. He was plain spoken and honest and would do anything to help somebody. Brother Engel was one of the few people I have ever know as a Christian who was entirely consistent in both word and deed. I never, ever heard him say anything bad about others. He did not gossip or make idle chatter. He cared for people.
The man loved Jesus and a made a commitment to talk to someone everyday about his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He is the only one I have ever known who actually kept up that commitment over many years. He was especially concerned that people come to know Jesus Christ and be saved. He became a Christian as a young man and never forgot that it was Jesus who brought him out of darkness and into the light of salvation. Even now, Pete Engel would want you, who read this, to know that you can ask Jesus into your life and be saved! "All who call upon the Lord shall be saved!" (Romans 10:13) It was Jesus Christ who made Pete Engel into the saint he was.
He loved Eileen (Mrs. Engel to me). They were a special couple. They opened their home to a couple of special daughters, Becky and Susan.
Brother Engel was present at some of the major events of my life. He baptised me, along with my dad, back in 1964 when we joined Aberdeen Avenue Baptist Church. He stood up with me as my best man in 1972 when I married Nancy Farley. He presided at my ordination to the ministry in 1974. The Engel family visited Nancy and me in New York City when we ministered there. He spoke at my mother's funeral in 2001.
None of the churches Brother Engel pastored became large. He always worked bivocatioanlly, splitting cedar shakes or doing carpentry work. The Engel's were mostly poor financially, but managed their money well and were always rich in love and mercy and grace.
My memory of Brother Engel is one of a quiet, strong and vigorous man who maintained that strength well into his eighties. However, the last time I saw him, his poor body was almost worn out. He could only respond with his eyes. Now he is free!
If they play baseball in heaven, and if any other baseball players made it there, he is probably in a pick-up game. A friend of our family, who knew Brother Engel as a young man, said he was the best natural shortstop he had ever seen, and that he should have played professionally. He had a passion for the game all his life. However, Pete Engel consciously gave up the opportunity to try to play professional baseball to become a pastor. He invested his live in people for Jesus' sake. All of heaven cheered when he came home!

Susan is such a wonderful person, she must have had an incredible father to show her and teach her how to be so kind and generous. She talks about you from time to time and she was so proud and grateful that you gave her such a great life and a loving home. There is something to be said about a home that adopts a sweet innocent child, like Susan, and gives them a chance at life to be loved and protected. I have great respect for you and your wife. Say hello to the big man up above for me and we will meet someday up in heaven. Thank you.

Hey Pete, you will be truely missed by your family,freinds and all your many acquaintances. Do you Remember the clam digging trip back in 1974 during the blizzard ?. Snowed all the way to the beach. As we walked down to the surf, we couldn't even see our feet. I said "sure wish it would stop snowing". You said "Amen". The sun broke out at that moment while it contined to snow all around us. I'll never forget that funny little smile that came to your face. Oh well- so much for wishful thinking. There was always a lesson in everything that you did. I am trulely honored and blessed to have known you. So long Pete Engel,untill we meet again. Thanks for everything.
P.S. Sorry about the orange juice mix up.
