Ray dean reese Hello friends... I am so blessed to have been allowed by the Lord to spend 50+ years of my life singing with the Kingsmen! Thank you to our Crossroads family, the personnel and musicians for partnering with us in the making of this recording. I want to give thanks for the 42 years with my wife, Carolyn, who went home to meet her heavenly Father on October 5, 2016. Her dedication to me and the ministry of the Kingsmen was unsurpassed and she filled the role of quartet wife to perfection. Her support was what enabled me to be on the road because I could trust her completely with our home and family. This project is dedicated to her memory for the Legacy of Faith she left behind. She and I will meet again at His feet! Blessings,»»Ray Thank you Lord for saving my soul and allowing me to spread your gospel to a lost and dying world. Thank you for a loving and supportive wife Shannon. Thank you for a beautiful healthy daughter Ava. Thank you God for the gift of music. Thank you guys on the bus, the best ever. Thank you Mom for giving me a Godly home to grow up in, I will see you again one day. Wow, that s a lot to be thankful for!!!!!!»»brandon Brandon reese
Bob Sellers I d first and foremost like to thank my Lord and personal Savior, Jesus Christ, for without Him, I am nothing. Anything I m ever able to sing, do, accomplish, etc. is only by His grace and mercy. I thank the Reese family for taking a chance on me as a relative unknown more than five years ago. It would have been much easier and far less of a risk to hire someone already well-known within the industry. Because of their generosity and belief in me, I ve been able to go places, meet people and experience things that I never could have imagined. I d like to thank Ray Dean, especially, for his fiveplus decades of commitment to this ministry and for his commitment to me and the other guys on the bus. I thank my beautiful wife, Kansas, and our precious children Corley, Ellie and Will for their support and sacrifice in allowing me to honor this calling on my life. There is never a moment that you aren t in my heart, even when I m hundreds of miles away. I love you all so much! My mother, Helen, taught me everything I know about singing a gospel song. Thanks, Mom, for all those lessons around the piano years ago and for your encouragement throughout my life. To my dad, Robert, who is my best friend and hero; I am so blessed to have had your Christ-like example throughout my life. Stephanie, Jeff, Morgan and Preston I love y all! My pastor, Bro. Tony Latham and Mrs. Ceav, everyone at Faith Free Will Baptist and everyone I know but don t have room to list including all those who support me whenever we re close to home your prayers and support are more appreciated than you could ever know. Thanks to Joe Brown who gave me my first quartet job many years ago. There are many who are no longer here who ve impacted my life in an amazing way, as well. Rev. Paul E. Sellers, was not only my grandfather but my pastor and a huge influence on my life. I think of him every time I sing. I dedicate the song, Legacy to him and to my grandmother, Doris, and all the people who ve ever had a part in pointing me to Jesus, even those I never knew. I d also like to thank and honor the memory of Mrs. Carolyn Reese, without whose tireless efforts throughout the years, The Kingsmen likely would have never survived. You were a rock and will always be with us. Last but not least, I thank the guys who currently make up The Kingsmen Ray, Randy, Josh, Brandon and Dan. Y all are my brothers and you make life away from home a lot more manageable.»»bob
randy crawford After 20 years of singing gospel music, it never ceases to amaze me that God has blessed me to do this. I hope I never take it for granted; this is the greatest message. Salvation only comes through Christ Jesus. There are too many people to thank individually...but I will give special thanks to my parents Dewey and Jeanette for pushing me, to my children Clayton, Cameron, Mitchell, and Grace for enriching and blessing me, and my wife Caroline for supporting, teaching, loving me and for always lifting me up when the road gets long. You ll never know how much I love you. Jesus, you have saved me, and I ll praise you forever. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.»»Randy joshua horrell What an amazing life to be able to sing for the one who saved my soul! What an incredible journey this has been so far. Thank you to my family and friends for their love and support that allows me to travel the country and be away from home. Thank you to the guys in the Kingsmen for giving me this opportunity. There is nothing like it. Most of all, all the praise and honor to God for the gift and allowing me to live my dream! I hope this music blesses your heart and makes a difference in your life as it has mine.»»josh
