We stand on the shoulders of all those Douglass Alumni, Riverview Residents and South Central Kingsport fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles, friends and neighbors who came before us, fought the long fight, took a stand, and gave us inspiration. Some of them left us far too early, others too sudden to comprehend.
May God hold them special in His Keep, as we forever hold them deep in our hearts.
