We need your help naming the men in the picture!  What was the occasion and the year?  Where was this picture taken?  Rev. Jesse M. Brown provided a few of the missing names.  He also indicated that this picture was probably taken sometime during 1962 just before the church moved from 1958 W. Washington Blvd. to 3411 W. Douglas Boulevard.
