Reflections for Patrolman Hosea Ocala Martin

Patrolman Martin,
On today, the 100th anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of Laurens. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

You sacrificed your life almost 100 years ago, and now we are connected. Your name is engraved next to my son Diego who died in the line of duty 10 months ago. And that's when one realizes that time and space mean nothing. You were pretty much the age of my son. Times have changed, but the law and order should prevail. I hope I can meet any of your descendants at some point in life. Thanks for your service.
