To: The family of the late Melvin Little.

We met Brother Melvin when he joined the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church in Hartford CT., some years ago. We remember Brother Little serving on the Usher's Ministry for as long as we were a part of the same church. Whenever we returned to Hartford and visited Mt. Moriah, Brother Little was still serving.

Brother Little was a dedicated and faithful member of Mt. Moriah, and served wherever he was needed. When The Little's moved to Georgia we still kept in touch and made plans to visit each other. We never got to visit each.

Brother Little is now a part of that "great cloud of witnesses." And, we will see each other again in that "Great Getting up Morning."

Our prayers and thoughts are with you, Sister Little, and the family.

Deacon Paul and Sister Fannie Kennedy, Effingham, SC
