Condolences are still pouring in for the family and friends of Gerald Burnett Sr., a popular educator and music minister who died in the choir room of Mountain View Church of Christ in Dallas, Texas, after a worship service on Sunday. He was 41.
Charlotte Beal, the church’s office manager, confirmed Burnett’s death in an interview with The Christian Post on Tuesday and said nothing was out of the ordinary as they gathered for worship on Sunday.
“It was a normal church service. The music minister directed us in the worship part of the service. Everything was normal,” the manager, who explained that she was still grieving the loss, said. “I’ve known the family since they were in school. We’ve been church family for 30 or more years. He is very well known among the Churches of Christ, schools.”
