Deacon Willie Hobbs, Sr. I was so very sorry to hear of Deacon Hobb's passing. As sad as it is, you will always have his memory to hold in your hearts. The Bible reminds us that "Blessed are those that mourn for they shall be comforted." I pray that this will be especially true for each and every one of you as you mourn your loss and that God will give you the strength to see you through this sad and difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Blessings, Christina Canty

I remember Mr. Hobbs as a man that I respected and admired. When I was a young man he gave me an opportunity to work for him. Men like him, showed young men like myself what it meant to take care of your family. I am very fortunate to have had the opportunity to know him. John Sneed
