I know you must know Donna Durham. I know around 1977 she started goinf to Bro Sizemore's church.
Actually I went to the church as well when the Lawrance Family sang at the church in 1978.
My dad's church was in High Point Ohio which is near Cincinnati.
When he passed away at 43 in 1978 from kidney disease.

I remember Buzzy and Doris Durham. I think they had two sons, David and Danny. I remember when Donna was born. Doris had some problems with the birth. Donna married Frank Mink, a friend of my sons. Last I knew Donna was estranged from her parents. She and Frank were living in the Pontiac MI area and he was involved with the Apostolic university that was started there a couple of years ago. Donna and Frank were going to Bro. Paslay's church before they moved to Michigan. I think there was some kind of fallout between Frank Mink and Bro. Paslay about some funding. I think one considered it a gift and the other considered it a loan.
When I first came to Cincinnati in 1957 I came with Ken Wilson and Dale Simpson. Dale later married Doris Durham's sister, Shirley Bantley. I lived with Ken Wilson's family for a while. His brother Jack (married to Shirley and had a son named John plus an older daughter) wound up staying with the church and Bro. Buller when the Paslays left. At one time Dale rented a basement in Hillsboro, OH (I think this was 1959) and we went out there and painted, etc. and held meetings. I preached for him for a three night meeting but nobody came. Later he was unable to pay the rent and gave that up.
I know where High Point is. One time some of us from the Carthage Apostolic Church went to a park there and held a meeting but there was no response. We had singing and I preached. That summer we went to a couple different areas of Cincinnati and once to Norwood across from Surrey Square and held street meetings. I don't even remember when that was but I guess it was the early nineteen seventies.
