We first met Bro Bourn when he was driving the church bus for my wife's parents then as Assistant Paster at Woodlawn. We sang in Four the Cause together. He will always be a force in our lives, always kind and considerate, he was there when we needed him the most. We will miss you and continue to pray for his family.

I was so saddened to hear of your loss. Bro. Tim and Sis Jonette were SO kind to me and my daughter while in MS, always encouraging, always smiling. His singing always touched me deeply, and I know he was a true man of God. May our Lord comfort you and your family now, and Bless you in the days ahead.

Bro. Bourn prophesied to my wife and I many years ago when we desperately needed a word from the Lord. We enjoyed his preaching and singing so very much. He did both with anointing and with authority. We will miss him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and we know that God will walk with you through this most difficult time.
