I was called by Miss Louise Gibson around 6:00AM to ask me to come to the Grand Bay Convalescent Home.  Martha Patrick’s brother, James “Bubba” Swann, passed away around 5:00AM this morning and I went to be with Martha as she received the news.  Mr. Swann was 90 years old and, ironically, his wife passed away exactly one year ago today.  Pray for Martha and the family as they go through this time. 

Also, I learned this morning that Mr. Emmett Gaston passed away yesterday.  Mr. Emmett was a member of 1st Baptist and is a long time Grand Bay resident.  The visitation will be tomorrow night with the funeral service taking place Monday.  Pray for the Gaston family too.
