Note: Received a call on yesterday while I was at work that there would be a memorial service at 2:00 PM. I worked until 3:00 PM. I understand a minister that I am very much familiar with from down my way Rev. Albert Baker really preached.  Stopped by Bone Inn Seafood to get me something to eat around 3:30 PM and I heard a couple of people talking about they enjoyed the services. Trying to get more details and/or a video/audio if available. I haven’t heard Rev. Baker preach in several years. C. Dancy II – DCN Publisher
