ODEAN HORNE Sr.

I miss you more and more as time goes on!

To the Horne/Robinson Family: Deacon Horne will always have a special place in my heart. He was in the first watch of deacons when I joined MBC and personified what a deacon's job is. Truly a great Dad, Granddad, and good Christian man! I got his sense of humor and I think he appreciated that. He will be missed and I'll miss sending him the occasional "Thinking of you" card. God be with you as you journey through this valley; my prayers are with you.

To the Horne Family,
Please know that we mourn the loss of our brother in Christ with you. By the provisions and promises enabled by the sacrifice made at Calvary, it is encouraging to know that we shall see Brother Odean in eternity. Your weeping today is not in vain for he rests under the protection of angels and awaits the harvest of a life dedicated to our Lord and Savior.

To Deaconess Horne and family;

I am grateful for the opportunity to have met Deacon Horne. He was always kind and kept me on my toes as I worked in Metropolitan Baptist Church. We had a running joke after asking him to join us singing prior to one Men's day.He would say he was 'waiting to do his solo'. I know the he is now among the angels preparing to sing his solo for God....Thank you family for sharing him with us

Deacon Horne was a blessing to all who knew him. He was a man of integrity and full of wisdom. He will surely be missed. May God be with Mrs. Horne, Valerie, Odean, Jr. And the entire Horne family

Deacon Odean orne, Sr. was one of the greatest men I've known in my lifetime. A father, mentor, adviser, and a servant of the living God. He will be missed, but not forgotten. God's got a good one in the kingdom.

With deepest Sympathy and love. Such a wonderful family, Mr. & Mrs. Horne. GOD has His Arms around all of you.
My prayers of consolation are for you.

Deacon Horne was one of a kind. One of the last of the "old guard," who taught us all how to be deacons! "I don't want to see anyone reading your prayers when it's your turn to
pray", he told our deacon class. "Let the spirit lead you" He left a legacy at Metropolitan and he will be missed!

We are so saddened at the passing of Deacon Horne. What a wonderful person we've lost! But we celebrate his transition to eternal life.

My parents and the Hornes were servants together and friends. Our families have traversed many milestones together, and for that we are ever grateful.

We will never forget his generosity towards Terence, giving him his first robe as he entered ministry, and attending his installation in his first church in Baltimore.

He was never...
