Dunklin County Hall of Fame

The Hall of Fame was started in 2003. A new group will be inducted sometime next month. I know that some have passed away since they were inducted, but the use of "the late" was used in the newspaper article to indicate that the person was deceased. However there are some which were not so marked even though they are deceased. For this reason I have left out "the late".
