attended but very comforting and uplifting! The Band featuring the Boston
Brass, led by Bro. Sam Kelly of Denver, Colo. played several numbers during
the service. Bro. Stanford, Jr's, mother in law, Sis. Gentles from Calif. wrote
a tribute "Ode To Denver". Very sweet! Rev. D.G. Hargrove's message was
entitled, "Four Anchors That Will Get Us Through This Day". They were
GOD, first, PEOPLE, family, friends, etc., MEMORY, Wonderful memories
that last a lifetime, and a HOPEFUL FUTURE. It was so encouraging!
There was lots of playing featuring the Boston Brass, Kathy Hernandez,
Eli's wife, played with them and they highlighted her as well as others.
Wonderful anointed singing!
May God comfort this good family, in Jesus Name!!
Blessings,
