HANEY, REVEREND R. T. - age 74, of Blaine, passed away Thursday, July 18, 2013. Rev. Haney was a man of many talents. Dachshund tamer, tour bus driver, grandfather, father, husband, and friend just to name a few. He attempted to lead every soul he met to Christ, and succeeded with a great deal of them. His congregation at Free Worship Church of Rutledge can attest to that. He met his Savior on July 18, 2013, and we can be assured he has never been more at peace. Preceded in death by parents, W. F. and Edith Haney; brother, Donnie; sisters, Gloria Cole and Joan Conard; and son, Wendell Macklin Haney, who will welcome him at the gates of heaven. He is survived by his wife, Charlotte Haney; four sons, Derrill (Pat), Craig (Debi), Bryon (Dr. Jennifer Adair), and Ben (Anna); brother, Desmond Haney (Rita); grandchildren, Sara, Jared, Scott, Shawn, Adam, David Jonathan, Jessica, Miya, Allison, Dinah, Luke, and John Reece; and two great grandchildren, Dravon and Zachary.
