A memorial service was held in the Eglise de l’Annonciation, Passy, Paris, where Courthial was pastor for many years, on May 2. A disciple of Auguste Lecerf, known for his confessional Calvinism, Courthial was a remarkable preacher and teacher, the author of many articles and several books, two of which are presently being translated into English.
