Bob Hawkins
Choir Director
Like my wife Elizabeth, I learned early that my life would revolve around music, and that my primary service in the church would be in music ministry. For forty-four years I was choir director at Trinity United Methodist Church in Greenville, MS, and not long after moving to Starkville I became the choir director here at Trinity. When I’m not practicing consulting engineering and RVing all over the country with Elizabeth, I play clarinet in the Delta Symphony Orchestra in Greenville, serve as music director for many Delta Center Stage musical productions in Greenville, direct the Greenville Community Harmony Chorus (in which Elizabeth also sings), and sing in the Starkville-MSU Symphony Chorus. I’ve played the clarinet since the fifth grade and was fortunate enough to have playing opportunities practically nonstop through all the years.
Elizabeth Hawkins
church Pianist
I learned long ago that my primary service to the church would be in its music ministry. Until I became the pianist at Trinity in 1985, I sang in church choirs and served as substitute accompanist at several churches. My other musical activities include singing in the Symphony Chorus and playing French horn with the Starkville-MSU Symphony Orchestra and, in the summer, with my RV club band. I began studying piano at the age of five and continued until I graduated from MUW with a Certificate of Music along with a bachelor’s degree in English.
Alliyah Bradford
administrative assistant
I’m Alliyah, but you can call me ‘Liyah.’ I reside here in Starkville, MS where I have a 8 year old son named Cayson. I love to help people and make their lives easier. I have lots of experience in the office, and I know how to get things done quickly and efficiently. I’m always looking for ways to improve my skills and learn new things! I enjoy hanging with family and friends, the outdoors, and being creative. I also have a small business where I make T-shirts and wooden art! @Splatteredbyliyah
