Once again I’m late coming into the conversation. I’ve been up on the mountain top ever since the Reunion. I echo all of your sentiments, everything was spectacular. Many thanks to Willard, Barbara, Sylvia, and all of you who helped bring this to fruition. You all did an extraordinary job. You were all Joy Makers.
This Reunion was truly an anointed, Divine appointment, it was not an accident or a coincident Someone said it was perfect, someone else said nothing’s perfect, it wasn’t perfect but they didn’t notice. I say it was a Perfect Plan and I believe that is the unexplainable. We all experienced the Presence of Joy, it was overflowing and just kept coming. Each event brought more joy, someone else you hadn’t seen, more smiles, more laughter, more memories of happy days. It was apparent that we all enjoyed being there with each other and I have never seen so many people so happy without any altercations. Even at funerals, weddings and family reunions, sometimes there are altercations. I was especially happy that my daughters were there with me to witness this and to meet many of you; they loved it too.
The Sunday service was hmmm hmmm good, good to the last drop!!! Perfect songs! It was heart warming seeing Kenny Cheeks give his heart to the Lord. Now you all know there was ‘Joy in Heaven over one soul’. Being at Friendship with so many of you, brought back many wonderful memories for me. Seeing Mrs. Iodine Waters (Donnie’s Mom), Mrs. Dove (Jimmy’s Mom) and Mrs. Ella Mae Dillard brought back such awesome memories. These ladies were pillars and towers of strength for me…strong, faithful, God-fearing women that I have always admired and looked up too. I was so happy and grateful I had this brief moment in time to thank them for being there.
Willard as I listened to your praises and exaltations of the Father, I thought…”maybe he missed his calling”. Watch out, or I’ll start calling you the Preacher Man.
