Sports

There is an old saying; an elephant never forgets. Well, neither does a community. On Tuesday, Field A1 at Graham Memorial Park was renamed as Jo. Bell Field in honor of the late Lebanon police chief. A large group of people in attendance heard Bell’s fiancé Susan “Sissy” Yokum, as well as Mayor Gary Crenshaw and City Administrator John O. Thomas, spoke about Bell’s love for youth sports. A large sign in his honor sits behind the fence in the outfield, and a plaque was installed at Graham Memorial Park.
