After being forgotten for so many years, it is comforting to know that my Great Grandfather's name has finally been remembered and immortalized. Though I never knew him, it is an honor to be his great grandson. I can not express in words how much respect I have for the men and women of law enforcement who put their life at risk everyday.

You would be very proud of the five- year-old son you left behind. He fought in WWII, graduated from Mississippi State, married, had three children,is still in love with his wife of 56 years, and, at age 83, is very active on his farm. I know the son you left behind very well. I call him "Dad." Yes, you would be very proud of the family you didn't live to see. We love you and thank you leaving us such a rich legacy.
