TO MY DEAR BROTHER IN THE LORD HE ALWAYS KNEW WHEN TO COME AND HOLD MY HANDS AT CHURCH AND GRAB THEM REAL GOOD AND IT WOULD ALWAYS LIFT MY SPIRIT, UP YOU ARE GOING TO BE MISSED.WE LOVE YOU MOTHER CUNNINGHAM AND TEMIKA AND FAMILY

GENELL TATE

To the Cunningham family, Deacon Cunningham was truly a light shining bright in BDT. We thank God for the years the Lord allowed him to be in our lives to share in the fellowship as a Deacon, an encourager, an example of a true saint of God, a faithful member, and I say this without having to think what to say. This Man of God was a true example of peace, love, and gentleness. It was easy to Pastor such a man of this caliber. To Mother Carolyne and Shemeika, God gave you one of his best, and we thank you for sharing him with Bishop and I. This is our loss but heaven's gain. We will see him again if we continue to live right. We love you, and know that yes, the tears are going to fall, and the heart is going to hurt for just a moment. BUT GOD!! He will gather those tears and put them in a bottle, and write it in His book. God has you in the palm of His hand.
