Of
Mr. JAMES ARNOLD HICKSON
Words however kind can't mend your heartache you are feeling. But those who care and share your loss may they all be comforted and have peace of mind. I worked with Lt. Hickson when we were both new in the early 80's at Nashville Metro.... " I WILL DEFINTELY FEEL A LOSS"
