Jupie and I graduated together in 1963 from Jackson High School, Jackson, Tennessee. He was a sweet friend. I am so sad to learn of his passing. His family has my deepest sympathy.

Verse of the Day

And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
