The Dove Brothers at Brewster Baptist Church

Brewster Baptist Church’s final Gospel concert for this year will be held on Saturday, August 29, at 7.00 pm in the sanctuary, and will feature The Dove Brothers, a talented group of five men who specialize in Southern Gospel music.

Formed in 1998 by brothers McCray and Eric Dove, The Dove Brothers Quartet has quickly become a household name in Southern Gospel music with their unique throwback style and current Southern Gospel sound.

The group is best known for their hit songs, Didn’t It Rain, Get Away Jordan, and their biggest hit to date, I Can Pray.


The group was awarded Horizon Group of the Year in 1999 and Favorite Traditional Male Quartet at the 2002 Singing News Fan Awards and hasn’t missed a beat since. Their recording, Never The Same, is the group’s most critically acclaimed and groundbreaking album to date.

Earlier this year they were named Favorite Male Quartet at the 2009 SGM FanFair Awards in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, having won the same award in March 2008.

The group’s latest album for Sonlite Records – titled Hold On – was released a few months ago.

Current members of The Dove Brothers Quartet include: McCray Dove, Eric Dove, Jerry Martin, Jerry Kelso and David Hester.

People from the Past: 3. Reg Varney (1916-2008)

Image
Reginald Alfred 'Reg' Varney was an English actor, most notable for his role as a cheerful Cockney bus driver in the 1970s TV sitcom On the Buses . For ten years he lived at Dark Lane House on picturesque Dark Lane in Budleigh Salterton, seen above.  Millions of television viewers remember him with affection. He has been described as belonging to the old school of comedians, with his dislike of much contemporary television and his pride in never using swear words to get a laugh. Varney was born on 11 July 1916 in Canning Town, which was then part of Essex but is now part of East London. His father worked in a rubber factory in Silvertown and he was one of five children who grew up in Addington Road, Canning Town. He was educated at the nearby Star Lane Primary School in West Ham and after leaving school at 14, he worked as a messenger boy at the Regent Palace Hotel, pictured above.

He is not listed on Budleigh Salterton’s War Memorial, yet his grave is in St Peter’s Burial Ground on Moor Lane. His family were not local, yet he seems to have been killed while engaged in the highly hazardous work of protecting Budleigh against invasion.   The Commonwealth War Graves Commission records him as a member of the 12 th Battalion, Devonshire Regiment with the Service Number was 5627659. According to the same source, his parents were George and M. Holloway, of Hounslow, Middlesex.   Tackling this WW2 project chronologically as I am, it was clear that Stanley had died on the same day as Private Clifto

It was difficult to confirm that link, but there were enough intriguing aspects to Gerald’s story to raise questions that I wanted to see answered. Further research led to more East Devon links – to Honiton, Exmouth and further afield. In a very roundabout way I finally made contact with his daughter Louanne, to whom I am grateful for providing information about the family, not least some family photos like the one above. Gerry, as he was kno
