Letters to the Editor

Sheriff commended:
Dear Editor,

Over the years I have never seen a county sheriff make the front page of the Memphis Commercial Appeal Sunday edition.

The sheriff, his officers, and the many volunteers, beside saving a child’s life have brought to the county very favorable publicity.

We are truly lucky to have such a professional individual for our county sheriff.

Thanks Kenny and all the volunteers for bringing Morgan home.
