WILLIE LEE CRENSHAW

Willie Lee Crenshaw was born April 8,1943 in Kilmichael, MS, the son of George and Alberta Crenshaw.  Willie attended Mt. Zion High School and later moved to Flint, Michigan to work as a skilled welder at Flint Metal Fab, a division of General Motors Corporation. 

He committed his life to the Lord at an early age.  His favorite scripture was Matthew 22:39.
