Judge Reynolds is in the 2nd Judicial Court. He is a good person and a great Judge. I think the Preacher will be very sorry for his actions. Winnette GEORGE S.

Zion Baptist Church.. Karen Brown Stewart called me last night and we talked for about an hour.. The situation is a whole lots worse than stated in her original e-mail (inserted below) ... Diamond Stewart, present pastor, has removed tombstones and markers from the cemetery according to Karen .. She has personally seen him removed a tombstone and throw it in the woods ... It was laterly broken in several pieces so it could not be identified.. He is not allowing people to buried in the cemetery even thou their family are buried.. He has told some that they must have their family (already buried there) removed from the cemetery.. There is much much more!!!! Karen can be reached at [email protected] or phone: 850-539-0517 (Havana, FL) In the next two or three weeks there will a hearing in Quincy, FL under Judge Reynolds. I think letters to Judge Reynolds might help... I don't know of an e-mail address for the Judge..
