View all 98 ReflectionsYour name was read today for the first time from atop the courthouse steps while a drummer tapped out a mournful salute to you and so many others. It was a beautiful day. The birds were chirping and the bells of 1st Presbyterian Church were marking the passage of each quarter hour. You are not forgotten nor will you be.
