Clois along with his brother Dwight “Bubba” started the group in October of 1972.  Singing the gospel for 35 years, he is truly dedicated to Gods service.  He has an anointing from God to minister in music and sing the good news of our savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.  With a testimony of Gods power and deliverance that has touched many of our countries Veterans.  Clois is an active member in the music dept. at his home church.  His family, consists of wife Connie and one child Canessa and her husband Bryan and grandson Landon.  Living in a rural area, the community of Velvet Ridge Arkansas, Clois loves to share the joy of the Lord with everyone he comes in contact with and tell about Gods saving Grace.  Seeing many born into the Kingdom of God has made our travels worth all the sacrifice we’ve made over the years worth it all.  When Clois gets on the van, sits, then turns around and with a smile and says, “Kids, we get to go sing a song for Jesus.”  You know he loves what he’s doing for the Lord!!! His prayer along with the rest of the group is that many souls will be encouraged, lifted up and born again through the ministry of Velvet Ridge.
