Haynes Flags

Everyone feels a little more patriotic around this time of year as we recall our struggle for independence...and the people who sacrificed for it more than 200 years ago. But, others have sacrificed since then to help us keep our freedom. Rob Wilds recently met a Murfreesboro man who answered the call years ago...and now shares his memories of that time with others...

We regret that Mr. Fayne Haynes has passed away at the age of 94. However his son will continue his fathers business and the sharing of his fathers memories. Rest in Peace Fayne. You are a true WWII hero.
