Again, with his father’s death, he and his brothers have continued the tradition of giving this award. He was a faithful member of First Baptist Church Liberty, where he taught the Glory Bound Sunday School Class. He counted his Sunday School Class members as family and wanted them to know how much he loved them and appreciated their devotion one to the other, as it was obvious to him of their great love for the Lord, and others.
