Animal Abuse - Notice From Fred WattsI received the following email and decided that if we have someone in our area that is deranged enough to do this, we all should know about it and be on the lookout. That is the reason for this Special Email. The MPD did confirm that they received one report of these incidents but I am confident the others occurred also. As I always say, if you see anyone or anything suspicious in your neighborhood please call the Millbrook Police Department at 285.6832 or if it is an emergency call (9-1-1). If you SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING.

They appeared on the first gospel quartet concert ever held in New York’s Carnegie Hall. To perform at Carnegie Hall is recognized as the zenith of one’s career. With No. 1 hits like "Standing On The Solid Rock", "When He Was On The Cross, I Was On His Mind", "Lead Me To The Altar" and "I Lean On You Lord", this legendary group has recorded some 100 albums and attained a following of devoted listeners, including the late Elvis Presley. In July 2007, Les Beasley, Glen Allred and Derrell Stewart decided to retire. They sang their last song together as The Florida Boys in September at the National Quartet Convention in Louisville, KY. It was at this performance, before 10,000 fans, these three legends passed the mantel to the present group to continue the Florida Boys legacy which began in 1947.
