    We will miss out our breakfasts at Oley’s and our talks about the AME Church. You were a loyal Trustee, Male Chorus member and usher. They’re not many left who loved St. Mark like you! Rest well, our friend. God has called you from labor to reward.

    May your family find comfort in the arms of Jesus during this time. I will never forget our times of ushering at St. Mark & that one time you drove the bus to Fernadina Beach in support of Pastor/Bishop Sam. It was the only NASCAR experience I’ve ever had. LOL!!!
