Last week one of our local soldiers, Sargeant First Class John C. Beale, fell during action in Afghanistan and will be returning home tomorrow, June 11, 2009. Members of the community have been asked to line the escort route as Sargeant First Class John C.  Beale’s body is escorted from Falcon Field to the Cannon-Cleveland Funeral Home by the Henry County Police Department. The expected arrival time at Falcon Field is 6:00 p.m. and the procession is expected to begin around 6:15 p.m.

The route from Falcon Field to Cannon-Cleveland Funeral Home is:

• Dividend Drive to Highway 74
• Highway 74 to Highway 85
• Highway 85 to Highway 54
• Highway 54 to McDonough Rd.
• McDonough Road to Jonesboro Rd.
• Jonesboro Road to McDonough Square
• McDonough Square to Highway 42
• Highway 42 to Brannon Road to Cannon Cleveland

One of the best parts about being a resident of Henry County and Heron Bay Golf & Country Club is that sense of community that neighbors share with one another. Please come out and support the family as we honor one of our local fallen heroes.
