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 Robert James Ward, Prelate of the Eastern Missouri First Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction. The Ward family and the Jurisdiction are in need of our fervent prayers at this time.
Arrangements can be found here. 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.
