Chad “CJ” Reed Jr. (center) graduated from Dixie County High School last May. Representatives from the Taylor County Sheriff’s Office attended the ceremony in honor of his father, the late Chad Reed Sr. The local officers attending included (from left) Capt. Buddy Lee, Sgt. Robby Ricketson, Chief Deputy Marty Tompkins, Capt. Jimmy Cash and Deputy Danielle Chewning.
In death, as in life, Chad Allen Reed Sr. continues to link
Steinhatchee and Jena, two communities separated by a river but united as a
coastal family.
The bridge that shares Reed’s name is the focal point of
major community events – like the annual 4th of July fireworks show – and
offers one of the most spectacular views of sunsets so brilliant they could
only be painted by the Divine.
