Tullahoma is where the late Bishop Honea lived. I only met him once. That was in 1958 or maybe 1959. He was a skinny kid and I was 20 or 21. We were at a convention in Niles, MI. We were "elders" in one of the CoJC organizations. I found out much later that Eld. Michael Flemming has been to that same church at 1335 Fort St in Niles. Some time during the nineteen sixties Bro. Honea formed his own organization, FCoJC with headquarters at 100 E. Lincoln St in Tullahoma. I got back in contact with him a couple of years ago when I found out he was in bad health and on dialysis. He has since died.
Cleveland, TN is where the headquarters church for the CoJCI is located at 800 Benton Pike N.E. I keep thinking I'll get down there some day. I'm ordained in that organization.
Only times I've been to TN is to Gatlinburg a couple of times and Nashville once.
