I know that you were a nice school resource officer at Mt. Pleasant high school, but I told the secretary at Columbia Central high school that I graduated when I saw her at Walmart and she was very proud of me and she knows that I’m not gonna go there again. I saw your friend Jeff Clardy that came to Mt. Pleasant on my sophomore year and I’ve remembered him that he was at McDowell elementary school!

So sorry to hear the news about Uncle C.W. I have such wonderful memories of spending the summer and Christmas in TN with the family during my childhood.

I've worked beside C.W. for many years in this business. I can honestly say that a nicer guy was hard to find. I was just thinking of him last night at the Jail. I was wondering what he was up to these days. I knew he had been ill, but had no idea that it had progressed to this.

C.W. was always there when an Officer or the Department needed a hand. Very courteous, witty and a pleasure to serve beside. I will miss this man, a dear friend.

GodSpeed, C.W.....you will be remembered...

My late husband, Jim Ussery, worked with C.W. for several years at MCSD and then I worked after his death for several years. He was a super nice guy. You have my Prayers and thoughts during this time.
