I wish I had words to truly express my sadness but there just aren't any fit enough!. I thank God for allowing Bishop to be such a blessing to my husband. He molded and shaped him into the man of God that I've been blessed with. Ms. Dorothy I love you and you are in my deepest prayers.

Luke 23:42-43

42 Then he said, Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.[a]
43 Jesus answered him, Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.
