This communique is being sent at the request of the Adjutant General, Bishop Robert G. Rudolph, Jr. as per Presiding Bishop Charles E. Blake, Sr.
It is with great regret that I inform you of the passing of Bishop Herbert J. Williams, Prelate Emeritus of the Michigan North Central Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction under the leadership of General Board Member Bishop J. Drew Sheard, Jurisdictional Prelate. The Williams family and the Jurisdiction are in need of our fervent prayers at this time.
Final arrangements will be forthcoming. As the information is given to the adjutancy, it will be forwarded to you as soon as possible.
If I can be of further assistance, you can reach me by calling my office at (904) 217-9603.
