WEDNESDAY, 7/11/12
Not in much of a writing mood this morning and really do not have any updates on those folks in the hospital. Suffice it to say that I did not get to the hospital to visit Betty Carol yesterday afternoon. Bro. Jerry visited with the folks in the other hospitals but I have not talked to him about their condition.
Bobby & Deidra Crawley’s baby is a girl. The shower takes place this Sunday afternoon, 7/15.
Bro. Jerry’s team leaves for Guatemala early in the morning. I appreciate Carl Ray Moulds being the bus driver who will take them to the airport. Pray for them to have a blessed trip. (Bro. Johnny Tucker’s team comes home tomorrow)
Rita Vice leaves for Uganda on Friday morning. She will spend a month with Alisha. Good for them! Alisha is excited!
If you are in our Sunday School class and want to help with the food for the Heacock family, please contact Deidra Taylor if you have not done so already. Here is the obituary as printed to today’s paper:
HEACOCK Joshua Gene Heacock left this earthly world on July 9, 2012. He leaves behind his Aunt Ingrid (Ning Ning) Patrick and Uncle Matthew (Matt) Patrick who will miss him more than words can express. His life was also shared with his Aunt Belle (Bee) Hughes, Uncle Kenneth (K.D.) Hughes and Cousin Kevin Allen Hughes. He was a bright happy young man who was loved and will be mourned by the Grand Bay Community. He is survived by his father, Alfred Gene Heacock Jr.; his mother, Lorri D Owens; and his brothers and sisters, Gaynell “Rose” Nelson (B.J. Nelson), Margaret Hervert, Alfred G Heacock II, Kay Heacock, Marsha Elmore, Franklin Helveston, Alexanderia Heacock, Irene Helveston, and Isiah Helveston; his Paternal grandparents, Alfred G Heacock Sr. and Desie Heacock; his maternal grandmother, Gaynell Hayes (Harold Hayes deceased). He will be missed by many uncles, aunts, and cousins. Funeral services will be held Thursday, July 12, 2012 at 2 p.m. from Friendship Baptist Church in Grand Bay, AL with Rev. Teddie Turrentine. Visitation will be at the church Thursday, from 11am until service time. Pallbearers will be Matthew Patrick (Ingrid), Cory Hughes (Kimberly), Jeff Hernandez (Rhonda), Jason Tackett (Joanie), Kenneth Heacock (Stephanie), K.D. Hughes (Belle). Interment will take place in Serenity Memorial Gardens.
We are on a regular schedule today/tonight with our services.
I pray that you will have a great Wednesday with Jesus.
