Tribute to Parker Westbrook

People from Howard County and around Arkansas gathered last night in Nashville, Arkansas to pay tribute to Parker Westbrook, one of the state's great historians. Parker worked for my grandfather in DC, and we serve on the Pioneer Washington Restoration Foundation together. I spoke, as did AG Dustin McDaniel, David Pryor, Jimmie Lou Fisher, Donna Kay Yeargan, Rep. Steve Cole, and Woody Futrell. Sen. Larry Teague ran the program, and most candidates to appear on the 2010 ballot across the state were in attendance.
