Hello NP Friend. I am deeply saddened to report that G-Fy-G member, Tony Ward, Jr., died in a fire on Saturday morning, June 27, 2009. Arson is suspected.
As you can imagine, the entire Elmwood United congregation, and Tony's friends in the music group G-Fy-G, are shocked and grieved at this tragic news. Please keep Tony's family in your prayers, as well as those who are ministering to the family, including the many friends, neighbors, and Elmwood pastor, the Rev. Robert N. Burkins. As more details are forthcoming, I will update this blog. For local news updates, visit: WCBS News
Sincerely,
Kevin
