It has been my pleasure to have known Grady since 1999 when he contacted me at The Salvation Army in Hendersonville. He has been a generous and faithful supporter of our ministries and services. We thank God for men like Grady who not only love the Lord but express it in a loving and caring way. He will be missed.
