In 1816 Indiana was admitted to the Union of the United States. In celebration of the state's bicentennial a torch is being carried across all 92 counties. Our grandson, David K. Lacy, is honored to be one of the torchbearers in Tipton County. He is making this run today, October 6 on the 106th anniversary of his great grandfather Lacy's birthday and just one day before his own 31st birthday.
Five days ago David was promoted to the rank of Sergeant in the Tipton Police force.

Congrats with heart-felt thanks to David.
David is an awesome young man with a firm commitment to others. Congratulations to him for being honored by carrying the torch. You are justly proud of your namesake.
That is so cool, and especially cool that it is on Grandpa's birthday!
Chuck, thank you. David is a thoughtful public servant.
Vee, he is that. I got some unexpected honor when the list of torch-bearers was first announced by way of being approached on the street, "I see you are..." Well, no that is not I, it is my grandson!
Coleen, the timing sort of all came together. It is an honor for him to have been chosen.
Vanilla, Congratulations on your fine grandson and his good example to others. So glad you are feeling better these days, and hope that BBH is also doing well. Blessings to you both ~ Marsha
