Decades before Tate County Genealogical & Historical Society, Inc. was formed, the White Men and Women were honored for their service in WWII in a book of photographs with brief bios of their military service compiled into a book.
TCGHS would like to do the same for the Black Men and Women who served in this conflict in belated appreciation for their service. We would put this information in book form to add to our library. To do that, we need the help of those servicemen and women still alive or their family members.

It was 38-years ago on St. Patrick’s Day that I gave the prettiest girl I know a diamond ring and asked her to share my life.
The romantic devil I was in my younger life, I had picked St. Patrick Day for the several reasons.
Sara’s maiden name is Reid, she has red hair and a demeanor to match an Irish reputation. My favorite color is green.
Come on! If you have to find a reasons to give a girl a ring, I guess you should not be doing it. But then again, if you are hopelessly in love, any reason is a good excuse.
