Deacon French was one of the first people I met when I joined EBC. He was always the same, giving a warm smile with added encouragement. He was one of a kind and I will truly miss him. To everything there is a season. Deacon French's season on earth has ended but continues through all of us who loved him. Keep your heads high. May God continue to strengthen each of you today and forever.
