Plane Crash Claims the Lives of a Southern Gospel Group

  • Posted on July 27, 2024 at 4:26 pm

Many southern gospel fans were in shock this morning upon hearing news of a plane crash that claimed the lives of Jason and Kelly Nelon Clark, Amber and Nathan Kistler, their assistant, Melodi Hodges, and pilot, Larry Haynie and his wife, Melissa.

The crash occurred near Gillette, Wyoming, where the group was on their way to meet up with their Gaither Homecoming friends for an Alaskan cruise.

The first song I remember hearing the Nelons sing was “O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing” back in the 1980s, but when I think of the current group, the song that comes to mind is “Then Came the Morning.” I was impressed with Amber’s voice the first time I heard it, and she just got better as time went on.

Please keep Autumn Nelon Streetman and the rest of the Nelon and Clark families in your prayers.

CD Review: Stronger Together (The Nelons)

When you think of the Nelons, you may think of great harmony and good songs. This CD will not disappoint.

One Little Word talks about the name of Jesus. It’s amazing how effective that one word is no matter how low you get.

Family Chain reminds us that, although we may lose loved ones on this earth, if they know Jesus, the separation is only temporary.

The highlight of the CD, for me, is Then Came the Morning. I love the song anyway but Amber Nelon Thompson does an awesome job on this classic.

Jason Clark sings Gate of Heaven.

Karen Peck Gooch joins Kelly Nelon Clark and the Nelons to sing You Can’t Make Old Friends.

I’m so glad someone finally brought back I Think I’ll Read it Again. I have loved that song ever since Gold City released it in the 1980s.

Other songs included are: In My Father’s House, The Awakening, and Angels Hover Near You.
