Dear Daniels Family,
On behalf of myself, my wife Michelle and the Bates Memorial family, we offer you our deepest condolences in the passing of Dr C Mackey Daniels. Dr Daniels was not only a pastor, preacher and teacher, but he was also a fearless freedom fighter and advocate for the downtrodden, dienherited and oppressed. His selfless service, tireless efforts and resounding voice blessed West Chestnut and stirred the city, state and country. He is missed. But his voice...

To the Daniels Family,
Our heart felt condolences for the loss of your father. Pastor Daniels meant so much to our family. We have so many wonderful memories of the time we spent worshiping at West Chestnut. He was a great leader, pastor and teacher. He will always be remembered as a faithful servant of God. "Well done thou good and faithful servant: thou has been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things; enter thou into the joy of thy Lord". Matthew 25:21
