wellborn my hometown

Word of the death of G. Humberto Diaz de Arce, on Saturday January 15, reached us in time to be shared with his church family at Wellborn Methodist on Sunday, January 16, 2011. He held membership and occasionally taught from the pulpit @ WUMC. He was one of us for more than 25 years. On the book jacket of his most recent published book "Why Israel" there appears this biographical information. "G.H.Diaz de Arce was born in Cuba. There he received primary and secondary education. He earned a B.S. and M.S. degrees from Auburn University in Alabama. His scientific training and his knack for research led him to study the ancient history of the Middle East in which he developed an intense interest. He worked at the University of Florida Medical Center in biochemistry research. He also worked in Walt Disney World as a paint chemist until his retirement."
Humberto's wife predeceased him. Their four children and their families mourn now. There will be a graveside service on Saturday January 22 at 10 A.M. at Mt Pleasant cemetery on C-10A with family friend Rev. Stan Posey officiating, assisted by Rev. Jim Messer.
