My family would like to express our deepest sympathies to the family of the late Rev. Haskins. My Mother (Sadie Higgins at the time) was his choral music teacher at US Jones in Demopolis, AL during his high school years. I remember him during his pastoral tenure at Rocky Zion MB church in Pell City, AL. We are praying for peace and comfort for the family during this most difficult time.

I remember Rev Haskins when he was ministering at Morningstar Baptist Church. He was a wonderful person and I am quite sure he will be missed. I pray for the family's peace and comfort from God during this trying time.
