Deacon Ken Fair, a chartered member of The Trebletones and deacon at Rodman Street Missionary Baptist Church, stressed that the late Pastor Delano R. Paige of Rodman organized a group of teenage boys to form the Gospel Trebletones in 1960. At that time, he was a deacon at Mt. Bethel Baptist Church, in Trafford.
Deacon Fair stated that other chartered members were Bill Nunn, Ron Nunn, Charles Carter and David Culliver. For 56 years, he said, “We have the need to walk closer with God and to sing soul-searching music.” (Bill Nunn is not related to the Bill Nunn Sr., former Courier managing editor; Bill Nunn Jr., former Steelers scouts; or Bill Nunn III, the actor who recently died.)
Additional members are Bill Cyrus and Roland Russell.
Lamont Lewis is the Pro-Tem and Rev. Linda Moore is the pastor of First AME Church.
