Deacon Joseph Fields Sr.<br />
Deacon Fields was a<br />
prominent and outstanding<br />
deacon.<br />
He took care of Athens church<br />
business. He was a deacon<br />
second to none. Loyal and<br />
highly respected by all. A<br />
deacon indeed.<br />
He was concerned about his<br />
Pastor and made sure we<br />
were taken care of.<br />
Sister Dorothy Caldwell<br />
Evangelist Voyd Glenn<br />
Amazing! She always looked<br />
to<br />
please God and not man.<br />
Sister Glenn taught me to put<br />
God first. He will never let<br />
you down. Every word she<br />
uttered was beneficial to the<br />
soul.<br />

Pastor V. Glenn was one of<br />
those women that spoke soft<br />
but knew j ust what to say.<br />
I remember when I wanted to<br />
leave the church; she would<br />
say with that soft voice, I<br />
know, but pray about it.<br />
I also remember when we<br />
didn't have an organ. Sister<br />
Glen got on that piano and<br />
made that thing talk! We had<br />
some church.<br />
She had the prettiest hair<br />
and the best smelling<br />
perfume. I miss her.<br />
Pastor Michelle Hall<br />
Mother Glenn was a prayer<br />
warrior. She was patient<br />
and kind. She wanted<br />
everybody to understand<br />
that God Loves you and she<br />
loved you. Mother Glenn<br />
did it by example not j ust<br />
words. She always had<br />
words of encouragement<br />
and could make you smile!<br />
Evonder Wheeler<br />
Mother Glenn loved all of us<br />
(<strong>The</strong> Franklin Family). Even<br />
my older cousins remember<br />
her.<br />
Larry Neal<br />
Sister Voyd Glen from<br />
Cincinnati, Ohio, made an<br />
impression on my life.<br />
This mother took me under<br />
her wings and took me to be<br />
her daughter.<br />
She worked and tarried with<br />
me untiringly until I received<br />
the Holy Ghost.<br />
