More than 60 years ago, Paul and Margaret Hebbert started singing Southern gospel music with another couple from their church.
Later joined by their children Tim, Matt and Kim âFritzâ (Marietta), the style created by Paul and Margaret is now into its third generation. The Hebbert familyâs musical legacy has impacted lives as the family has performed in churches, auditoriums and other various venues over the years. Some concertgoers feel as if itâs not a complete performance until âHow Great Thou Artâ has been sung.
Paul felt called to the ministry at Open Bible Church in Casper, Wyoming, so he and his brother George went to the College of the Open Bible in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1952. While he was there, he was sent to a small church nearby, where he met Margaret, who had been called in to play piano that night.
