I've always been floored by how strongly Elder Barnes resembles Ossie Davis.

Anyway, may he rest in peace.

"Luther Barnes and family are asking for your prayers for the passing of his father Bishop F. C. Barnes at 2:00 a. m. Monday morning."-This quote was on the Luther Barnes facebook page.

I've been sitting at my desk singing "Rough Side of the Mountain" and "Can't You See For Yourself What Drugs are Doing!?" all day.

RIP Legend.
