Tributes to Robert Winterhalter
Goodbye Dear Friend
Divine Science has added a new star to the heavens, as we acknowledge the passing of our beloved Dr. Robert Winterhalter. Dr. Winterhalter was a Bible scholar extraordinaire, teacher, Minister, speaker, friend and prayer partner to me, as we served for many years together at the First Divine Science Church in St. Louis, Missouri. One of the kindest, sincere and gentlest men I have ever known, he was devoted and absolutely reliable, as a stalwart of the Divine Science movement. It was my privilege and honor to know him, and I feel certain he is being greeted and celebrated on the other side by legions of angels, and the great ones of God.
We bless you, Robert, on your way. We love you, and are so grateful for all you have given us, and the many, many lives you have touched and illumined.
May You Rest In Peace,
Eternal Friend,
Reverend Roma Carlisle
Rev. Robert J. Winterhalter...walked a Holy path...

To the Friends and Family of Rev. Dr. Robert Winterhalter,
I was on the phone with Dr. Robert just last week, and we emailed one another into the weekend on a topic of mutual interest. He was excited about his new book, and was appreciative of our Divine Science Ministers Association's interest in helping him to market it later this spring. His vitality retains my attention, as I offer these words of memorial at this time of his transition:
“Behold, I make all things new.” Rev. 21:5. God is revealing that transition from the earth life to the next phase of life is a natural progression of the soul. Just as a parent provides food before the child is in need, just as a loving parent provides a home even before the child is born, so our loving Father-Mother God has provided a garment, a new body for the soul at transition.
Paul tells us, "There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body." And as we have borne the image of the earthly, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. Then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, "death is swallowed up in victory." (Adapted from 1st Corinthians 15:44, 49, 53, 54)
And, finally, a favorite prose piece that speaks of our journey home after this earthly experience:
I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads his white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. He is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch him until at length he hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then someone at my side says, “There, he is gone.” “Gone where?” Gone from my sight. That is all. He is just as large in mast and hull and spar as he was when he left my side, and he is just as able to bear his load of living freight to his destined port. His diminished size is in me, not in him. And just at the moment when someone at my side says, “There, he is gone!” there are other eyes watching him coming, and there are other voices ready to take up the glad shout, “Here he comes!”
God Bless the life of Rev. Dr. Robert Winterhalter!
Amen. And so it is.
Peace and Blessings, Rev. Will
Remembering Dr. Winterhalter
Dr. Winterhalter was an avid supporter of our E-ministry (Symphony of Love) for ten years since its beginning. I always appreciated his comments and insights that he would send regarding one of my essays. Dr. Winterhalter was instrumental in getting me actively involved in INTA. His cards and letters always have meant a lot to me, and his keen intellect and kindness will be cherished in my heart. Dr. Winterhalter's dedication and wisdom will be fondly remembered by those in Divine Science and also in the INTA movement.
