I barely knew Bro. Luther but do remember visiting the church on Macon Rd. I always attended the Millington church, under the late pastor Hazel Simpson and the present pastor Travis Sheppard.

Sister Simpson--I remember her! I don't think I ever went to the Millington church, but my husband did for rallies, etc. You probably saw him there, but wouldn't have known him. He was only 21-25 while we lived in Memphis.

Jon preached revivals for her. I had never heard of her, but I have heard him mention her.
