October 26, 2016 - From Master Sergeant Justin R. Adams

I would like to thank the Tenaha Community for bestowing upon me the honor of being the 63rd Grand Marshal of the Homecoming Parade. It was a pleasure seeing old familiar faces in the crowd. As a Tenaha ISD Alumni, I was truly grateful to not only represent the school, but everyone who believed in me.

I would also like to extend a special thank you to Mrs. Martha Boren and Mrs. Brenda Lucas.

Again thank you to all who welcomed me home with open arms.
