First of all
About Larry Horton
After a courageous three year battle with cancer, trying every means available to extend his time with family and friends; Larry passed away on August 13, 2017.
He was an active member of the Edna community as a Little League coach, Cub Scout Troop Leader, volunteer firefighter, and award winning member of the Flag City Kooker cook-off team. He never missed a game of Stephanie and Russell’s and continued to support local sports after their graduations.
While education might not have been a passion in his younger years; he's always loved supporting the youth of Jackson County.
