We are so saddened by the loss of such a great man of God that we could call our friend. Bro Wellman will be remembered in our hearts as a true reflection of Godliness... always giving, loving, sacrificing. He was such an example of real Christianity as a Sunday School teacher & church leader to two young teenagers learning about what he had already experienced... the wonderful, sweet peace & direction of the Holy Ghost. Heaven has truly gained a treasure! Our prayer is for the Lord to comfort & strengthen at this time.

I remember Brother Wellman as a very kind and caring person. I never heard him say an unkind word about anyone. He greeted everyone with a "smile" and a "handshake". Brother Wellman made everyone feel welcome. He was a Godly man and it showed in his life. This world has lost a very "Loving Soul" but Heaven has gained one! I am truly sorry for your loss.

The world has lost to the ages a true Christian in Bro. Wellman. He led not only in word but by example and deed. He was and always will be a hero to me. Love and condolences to his family and friends.

The Wellman's have been friends of our family for around fifty years. Bro. Wellman was such a godly man with a humble and gracious spirit. This world has lost a great man. My hope is that his family will find peace and comfort, and feel the thoughts and prayers that are sent their way now from all the people the Wellman family has blessed.
