Most Recent Reflection
View all 28 ReflectionsIn light of the most recent tragedy Clinton has suffered, the loss of Lt. Eric Hosette on January 5th, made me remember you, Todd. I was Casey's babysitter, (then Callen's after he was born). I loved babysitting for you and Amy...you were great people and the kids were always such a joy. The community has come together to remember Eric, just as they did when you passed. The loss of great men like you and Eric hits Clinton very hard, but the love and support we all show each other during this time seems to ease the pain a little.
Rest in peace, and please take care of Eric...
