The HAWK still flies!! It's now 5 yrs since my brother in arms flew away. There is NONE like him and none to even stand to fill his space. I am continually thankful for reuniting with Keith Hawk though -- What a Blessing he has been! The Legacy of the HAWK lives on!

The HAWK still flies ! I was recently asked who is the best lead gospel singer of all time. Many names came up - Sam -- Joe--Ira--Cleve-- just to name a few. But ,and I must say - my opinion is bias . The HAWk -- was --is -- will be my choice for No. 1. His legacy sons Aaron and Keith are sons of the KING who serve well. Grateful they are part of our lives. REMEMBER the HAWK!!

Joshua Hawkins: Front man and floor general: Lead singer extraordinaire of the S.O.P.R.O.C.O.S. Singers of Houston.His fiery vocals lifted his audiences to such heights everyone in the room was changed. The "SOPROCOS Experience" was in large part due to him. His flame is ignited in the hearts of all who served along side him and all who loved him. He will NOT be forgotten.
