Ward was known for his natural musical talent. He had a voice and a spirit that uplifted everyone around him. He led the songs during many many church services with a voice so full of humble spirit that it moved the lost who heard it. When he led prayer, most would stop and just listen. He also attended many funerals where he would sing comfort and hope to the hurting.

Through his witness many were drawn to seek out and find the Lord. Above all Ward Loved the Lord. He also loved his wife, kids and family.
