Karry D. Wesley, who founded Antioch Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church, was remembered as a pillar of Dallas’ Black community.
Wesley should be remembered for his dedication to serving others, Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price said Sunday during a ceremony at the church. Dallas City Council member Tennell Atkins, whose district includes the Red Bird-area church, said renaming the road helps preserve Wesley’s memory and legacy.
Son Chris Wesley, now the senior pastor at the church, said his father was dedicated to building the community, but above all else, loved being a good father and husband. Community members celebrate the renaming of E. Kirnwood Dr. to Dr. KD Wesley Way during a ceremony at Antioch Fellowship Missionary Baptist Church in Dallas, TX, on Feb. 6, 2022.
