Since First Baptist Church of Eupora doesn’t have a “memorial” or “Homecoming” services, we are “Remembering their Sacrifice — Honoring their Service” on Memorial Day weekend. We have placed flags along the wall in the hall along with photos of servicemen who are no longer with us. Not all of them died during combat, but all served their country and today we remember them. Some of them attended this church, while others were loved by current members of FBC Eupora. On this Memorial Day, we remember Dubb Barnett, W.H. Bland, “Inkspot” Brown, John Oliver Cooper, Justin Cooper, Earl Pryor Doolittle, James C. Herrod, Jerry Elkins, Ralph Hodges, “Snook” Johnson, Lansing Lamb, Willis Morgan, Ed Morrow, Welty Oliver, William Rogers, Edwin Ross, Bill Seaborn, Russell Shaw, Edmond Shumpert, Upton Sparkman,Glen Sturdivant, Jack Turner, John Walker, O.L. Waits and W.O. Wilson.
