Ms. Jean and Preacher Joe will never know how much they have meant to my whole family.Many an hour Preacher Joe and Ms. Jean spent on their knees praying for not only people of their congregations but for the sick, downtrodden, and for those that needed help from God never once thinking of themselves.One of their favorite songs I remember was "Swing wide those gates I'm coming Home".Save a spot for me Ms. Jean.
