I cannot recall in my lifetime in this county a more courageous act than the sacrifice of Greg McKendry. This act of heroism gained the time to subdue a dangerous man. Three other brave men stepped up and prevented a massacre. All who acted today deserve great respect. But the greatest respect is to the man who gave the most. A hundred years from now the people of this county should remember and honor the sacrifice of a selfless man. “Where do we get such men?”, a famous quote from James Michener’s novel.
