"<strong>The</strong> purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate,<br />

to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." Ralph Waldo Emerson<br />

I n Loving Memory of the Late<br />

Elder William Dennis Davis<br />

and Mother Sallie Mae Davis<br />

You both have special gifts<br />

<strong>The</strong> Lord hath appeared of<br />

old unto me, Saying yea, I<br />

have loved thee with an<br />

everlasting love; therefore,<br />

with lovingkindness have I<br />

drawn thee. Jeremiah 31:3<br />

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 />

LaVonne Reynolds<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 />
