Annie Joyce Joiner Brown February 29, 1940 ‐ February 19, 2017 Annie Joyce Joiner Brown was born February 29, 1940, to the Reverend Elijah and Mrs. Geneva Barley Joiner. One of five children, she was gifted musically and was trained on piano. As a teenager, Annie Joyce formed the Joiner Trio with her little sisters, Geraldine and Vicky. Together they performed all around the city at churches, teas, talent shows, schools and even in the front yard if any neighbors or passersby wanted to listen. She was a majorette in the William Hooper Councill High School Band and a soloist in the school choir. Her soul was filled with music, and her hands could make beautiful sounds from a piano or organ. She could write a song with beautiful melodies and harmonies for voices to sing. While serving as organist at First Missionary Baptist Church, she met her future husband, Curry Brown, a soldier stationed at Redstone Arsenal, who had joined the church choir. Curry and Annie married and moved to Curry’s hometown of Monrovia, California. Their marriage produced three children, Patsy, Curry Ivan, and Ziza. At the peak of the civil rights movement, the family returned to the South, joined Center Grove United Methodist Church, and after a time, Curry entered the ministry. Annie taught piano lessons for many years, played for several churches throughout Huntsville and was an occasional substitute teacher. Annie was predeceased by her husband Curry Brown; her parents Elijah and Geneva Joiner; and her brother Dr. Murray Joiner. On February 19, 2017, she peacefully went to rest in the arms of Jesus, nine days shy of her 77th birthday. She has joined the heavenly choir. Her funeral service was February 25, 2017, at Center Grove United Methodist Church in Huntsville, Alabama, with Pastor Donald Smith and Pastor Michael Freeman officiating. Those who will forever cherish her memories are: her children Patsy Montague (Bobby), Curry Ivan Brown and Ziza McCrary (Marcus); her sisters Verdell Pope, Dr. Geraldine Thornton (Joseph) and Vicky Crawford (James); sister-in- law Nannie B. Joiner; and five grandchildren.

Faye Cotton Crumpton February 6, 1925 ‐ December 17, 2016 Faye Cotton Crumpton was born at home in Brilliant, Alabama, a coal-mining town in Marion County in 1925. She met Weymon R. Crumpton when she was in high school and married him when she was eighteen and he was twenty- two. They were married for 62 years until his death in 2007. The Reverend Weymon Crumpton served as a United Methodist minister for the North Alabama Conference for 64 years. Faye was known for her true Christian hospitality and loving nature. She never met a stranger and made friends everywhere she lived. She was a wonderful person, whose love for Christ was visible in her kind regard for everyone and her sweet spirit. She was famous for her cooking and baking and always prepared a major spread to celebrate any family gathering. Faye would spin wonderful stories about the experiences in the ministry that captivated any listeners. A lifelong member of the United Methodist Church and United Methodist Women (Women's Society for Christian Service), Faye began her faith journey at Brilliant United Methodist Church, a church built by her father and other members of the community. The church still serves the community and is noted in the North Alabama Hallelujah Trail. Her funeral was held on December 20, 2016, at Trinity United Methodist Church in Birmingham, Alabama.

Faye Margaret Curl August 19, 1923 ‐ June 4, 2016 Faye Margaret Curl passed away on June 4, 2016. She was born in Birmingham, Alabama, on August 19, 1923. Faye was born with a superb God-given musical talent which was an important part of her life. Throughout the years, she perfected this talent in the area of piano and voice. She began singing solos in church when she was so young that she had to stand on a box in order to be seen by the congregation. She competed in and won many voice competitions, particularly during her teenage years. During high school she had the female lead in all the musical productions. Following her senior year, she auditioned for and was awarded a scholarship to The Juilliard School of Music. In addition, she was offered ten other scholarships. Since her parents wanted her to stay close to home, she started her college career in 1941 with a scholarship to Birmingham-Southern College. It was there that she met the love of her life, Bill Curl, while singing in a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta. On December 18, 1943, Faye and Bill were married. When the war ended, Bill returned from his military service to complete his studies at Birmingham-Southern. Bill had felt God’s call to the ministry and he began to pastor a small church near the college. This was the start of Faye’s playing the piano and singing for church services.

Shelby Introduction The John Herbert Phillips High School is a basement and three-story Jacobethan Style school building that served as the centerpiece of the Birmingham school system from 1923 through 2001. Located between 7th and 8th Avenues North and 23rd and 24th Streets (Figure 1), Phillips High School occupies an entire city block. It was designed in 1920 by prominent Birmingham architect D.O. Whilldin, and was built in two phases: the first unit in 1923 and the second unit in 1925. Today the building is remarkably well preserved and retains much of its integrity, including both exterior and interior details.

  • Lost in Litigation: Untold Stories of a Title Ix Lawsuit
    LOST IN LITIGATION: UNTOLD STORIES OF A TITLE IX LAWSUIT DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kylee Jo Short, M.A. Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Sarah K. Fields, Advisor Dr. Melvin Adelman Dr. Brian Turner Copyrighted by Kylee Jo Short 2012 Abstract Girls and women in the United States are more active participants of sport than ever before. Many attribute this dramatic increase to the impact of Title IX, the legislation that requires gender equity in educational settings. However, Title IX is proving just to be the first step, as it does not address all of the issues. Namely, application of the law skips over the fact that poor women of color are ultimately left out of the equation. Women and girls of color are not “winning” the Title IX game like white women and girls. On the contrary, the application of Title IX ignores poor, black females. The purpose of this project is to fill the void left by ignoring poor girls of color by considering the voices that are often lost in Title IX fights. In considering the most recent lawsuit to reach the Supreme Court, Jackson v. Birmingham Board of Education, I explore the impact of this Title IX lawsuit on the Birmingham community. Through interviews with several involved in this lawsuit—Coach Jackson, three of his former players, a parent, a student, and an athletic administrator—I provide several angles on how Title IX played out at the local level.

  • The Early Days of the Alabama Golf
    I Alabama Golf Association i THE FIRST 100 YEARS by Ian Thompson f/ Commissioned by the Alabama Golf Association The Alabama Golf Association has had a storied past, which comes alive in Alabama Golf Association: The First 100 Years. From the early days of the association through almost one hundred State Amateurs, the reader is transported to yesteryear as championships are chronicled, characters introduced, and tales told from firsthand reports and many gleaned from newspaper stories of the day. State Amateur champions with such memorable names as Files Crenshaw through Smylie Kaufman, and all the champions before, after, and in-between, are learned of here. The two Sam’s, Perry and Farlow, stand tallest with four State Amateur wins each, with Glenn Crisman, Scudday Horner, M. C. Fitts, and Jackie Cummings each claiming three titles. And, in more recent times, who could forget Bobby Wyatt’s magical 57 in the second round of the 2010 State Junior at the Country Club of Mobile? Without a doubt, one of the very best rounds . in the history of the game. The AGA began in 1915, with the Women’s Alabama Golf Association coming along fourteen years later. Eighty-two Women’s State Amateurs have been contested with Kathy Hartwiger’s ten wins seemingly unassailable, and, who knows, she might just add to her tally. Others dominated their eras including Bee McWane’s six titles; Chris Spivey and Virginia Derby Grimes each with five; and June Mayson, Beth Barry, and Jane Reynolds all with four. These two associations became one in 2010 and that merger has seen both go from strength to strength as one body conducting twelve championships, many USGA qualifiers, and a number of other tournaments.
