Been a rough week for losses of many, the old time bluegrass greats led the way and heaven is having quite the revival right now.

Dr. Stanley has joined his brother and so many other of the founders of bluegrass to play for the Lord. I am sure they have all gatheted around and are making a truely joyful noise unto the Lord. I envey the angels for the sounds they must be hearing tonight. Rest easy Brother Ralph you have returned to your Father and shall know our earthly woes no more.
