Bob Littleton had his "going home" ceremony today. I'm sure he is already amped up and playing bass in a praise band!
Here he is on the right with the Sunshine Rhythm Boys band in 1952 on left and 1995 on right.
Bunky Eye, Richard Lankford, Fred McDowell and Bob Littleton.

Prayers of comfort for Jean and family. I will miss our conversations at Pizza Palace.
