Weary, 27, was the son of the Rev. Dolphus Weary, executive director of Mission Mississippi. Mission Meridian is the local chapter of Mission Mississippi, a statewide organization that promotes racial reconciliation through religion.
Reginald Weary led Pearl Police on a chase that ended with a fatal crash in Jackson on Wednesday night.
