Age 65, of Gallatin passed away on November 30, 2006.
He was born July 22, 1941 in Pineville, KY to James Shirley Large and Ruth Whitaker Large, both deceased. He attended Henderson Settlement School in Frakes, KY. After graduating, the family moved to Gallatin, TN and he worked with his dad at Jones Homes for several years. He was a drummer for "The Delta's" band from Gallatin. Eventually he went into the home building business like his father and grandfather before him. He loved his work but more importantly, he said that it was his "mission field" for God. Many souls will be in heaven because he took the time to share God's word and helped people to be saved. That was his joy in life. You will be greatly missed, we love you.
