Amos was my cousin who led me to be saved & Baptized at the First Baptist Church of Ferguson, MO. I always felt he was my Angel here on earth but if is Gods Will, I will share Time with his great family in Heaven. His faith and kindness were with my son & daughter when we needed Amos and God the most!

Sorry to see this. I remember when Amos first came to First Southern Baptist Church at 3rd and Moreland in Phoenix in the 60's. A really good man. May he rest in sweet peace.
