Rev. Dr. Janine Wilson, Green County, KY Rev. Dr. Janine Wilson was joy and wisdom incarnate. She loved Matthew fiercely, with a tenderness and delight that is rare in this world and precious to behold. Before they ever knew that they would one day marry, she spent countless hours building an HO scale model lighthouse, painting each shingle with the world's tiniest paintbrush; Matthew spent countless hours many states and years away building a model ship, plank by plank. God knew long before they did that they were destined to find each other, again and again, throughout their life together. Witnessing their love inspired their children to cultivate well-tended friendship as the foundation of their relationships too, as they witnessed and celebrated Matthew and Janine's particular love which was buoyed by playfulness, invigorated by shared curiosity about each other and the world, and infused with a sense of adventure in experiencing each new day as a true gift with all life's simple joys.
