Early Life
Stair was born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. He was ordained a Methodist minister, but left organized religion, stating "I just call myself a Christian." He moved to the South in the 1950s, saying that God had told him to move there because it would be "the safest place for Christians in the end time."

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“Three early risings make an extra day.”
—Chinese proverb.
“Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!—
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
