Heartfelt condolences to and prayers for the family of Deacon Whitehead. Roger and I served together as members and officers at the Messiah M. B. Church. He was missed at church after his illness kept him for attending on a regular basis, but he never lost his concern for the ministry, nor that spirit that would encourage others when we were visiting to do that for him. Rest on my brother, until we meet again. Deacon Marron Hopkins

Heartfelt condolences to the family, I worked with Whitehead for several years at Greyhound and he was a very close friend. I will miss our conversations after we retired, he was a joy to talk with and it was always fun to recall our fun times from driving for Greyhound. May God bring comfort to the family and I will miss my friend, may you rest well in God's arms. Willie A Walker Retired Greyhound Driver Memphis, Tn.
