Legendary gospel singer Paul Beasley remembered

DeRidder native Paul Beasley was a man with a God-given talent.
The Grammy-nominated gospel singer died earlier this month from congestive heart failure at 78 years old.
Beasley traveled around the world performing for the Gospel Keynotes and the Mighty Clouds of Joy before he lost his sight in 2013 and joined the Blind Boys of Alabama.
His voice may have led to places far and wide, but he stayed true to his roots.

My condolences to the family and friends of the late Paul Beasley. Paul Beasley had one of the best falsetto voices ever. Just as good as the late Eddie Kendricks. RIP 🙏
