I first saw Mr. Shea on one of the Gaither Homecoming programs and found out that he and I were born on the same day exactly fifty years apart. I have followed him ever since and was amazed when he reached 100 and was still singing as he did many years ago. I too sing as a baritone in our church choir and this past Sunday as the song leader in our service I changed our second hymn to I’d Rather Have Jesus in honor of a great Godly man who now sings in the heavenly choir with Jesus. May God rest his soul.
