IN MEMORY OF MY CLASSMATE AND FRIEND
TOLLING OF THE CHURCH BELLS
DURING OUR ERA AT MT OLIVE B/CHURCH, THE CHURCH BELLS WOULD RING WHEN SOMEONE PASSED AWAY. THE SOUNDS WOULD BE HEARD THROUGHOUT THE NEIGHBORING AREAS.
I AM SAD TO HEAR THAT THE TOLLING OF THE BELLS WERE FOR RODNEY.
I HOPE THAT THE CHURCH BELLS WILL RING FOR HIS SPIRIT AS THE LIVING DEAD WILL MAINTAIN A FORM OF LIFE AFTER DEATH.
ONE LOVE
GAYLE DAWSON
