Music Scholarship In The Works
April 16, 2009
The Kelso family would like to thank all of their Dove Brothers Quartet friends, and Southern Gospel fans who sent emails, cards, letters, flowers and love gifts after the loss of their son Brandon on April 2nd.
We are comforted by your love and prayer support and by the assurance that Brandon is now in the presence of God having completed his earthly assignment ahead of schedule. He was giving a shining witness for Christ just hours before the motorcycle accident.
We plan to establish a Music Scholarship Fund in Brandon’s memory and will be making further announcements in the near future.
God Bless You All and Godspeed for the Kingdom.
