2nd Timothy Chapter 4 verses 7-8: I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

It is with the saddest regret that the POPE, Peal, Wilson, and Bryant families announce with a heavy heart the death of Richard E. Pope in his 70th year after being in the hospital for three weeks due to a car accident. This sad event occurred in Atlanta, GA at Grady Memorial Hospital at 5 pm, March 7, 2021.
