(Brian Montgomery) Pastor Joe Burgess took a few minutes to visit about one of his, if not his favorite subject his son Blake. Blake tragically died several years ago in an automobile accident, and while I wasn’t in Mississippi at the time of his death, the funeral and community support is still discussed today.
During the interview (as well as some additional unaired conversation which can be played in its entirety below) Pastor Burgess shared his insight as to the young man Blake is and was, the single which has taken on a life of its own and the gentlemen who gave it life, singer Josh Miles.
I sadly never had the privilege of meeting Blake, but after this conversation I have a better understanding of just how truly remarkable he was and is, not just to his family but the community he loved so very much.
