I met William "Bird" Chambers when he was a young carpenter in our neighborhood. He was very skillful at his craft. Bird was very unique and creative. In fact, I considered him a genius. He knew or could do almost anything. He loved a challenge and would never give up on anything. His determination drove him to conquer anything he was confronted with. He loved to dress and could put an outfit together as if he was modeling for GQ. Bird could take anything and restore it. His antique Chevy truck is a good example of his gift to restore. He built and restored many houses and buildings in our community and other places. He will be greatly missed in our neighborhood. He fought a good fight and now he is a victorious legend in Heaven with Jesus. He recommitted his life to Christ and serves as a great witness for Christ. Well done good and faithful servant now take your rest. I will see you in the morning. We are praying for the family as you process this experience.
