In 2014, Special Agent Larry Paul Collins was paid tribute with a special ceremony at Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church in Pineview and wreath laying at the graveside behind the church followed by a sign unveiling on GA 257 at the southern city limits of Hawkinsville.
Trooper Collins had served with the agency for five years. He was survived by his expecting wife, parents, brother and sister.
