Ruby, Fletcher W, Joseph and family- words are not available to give the depth of sympathy felt as he has been a father to many in the church community, a Christian leader, faithful loyal servant to God, his family, and mankind. Rest your minds and hearts in knowing and remembering his purpose in life to run the good race, to hold up the blood stained banner of our Lord Jesus Christ by the will of Father Almighty in the strength of the Holy Spirit, to finish the course, and rest peacefully in the Everlasting Arms.

Deacon Fort was such a genuine gentleman. I enjoyed hearing him sing in the male chorus so much. I will miss his gentle spirit and am glad to have known him. My prayers will be with the Fort family.

As a former member of Falling Run Missionary Baptist Church, please accept my condolences. Deacon Fort was "the gentleman!" He was one of the most well dressed men that I knew of, too! And upon entering the sanctuary for any occasion, his face was the one that I always expected to see first. He will be missed; dearly, without a shadow of a doubt. Let us count it all joy that we got to be a part of his life, and that his life was one that was well lived. "God loves you, and so do I!" Happy Monday! Shalom!
