Parade royalty: Bueford Cooper, 98, breaks out in a smile while serving as the grand marshal of the Bill and Liz Hogan Fourth of July parade on Saturday afternoon. Beuford is a veteran of three wars and was a former FBI agent. He was driven by Charlie Trump. The hour-long parade drew a large crowd along the route.
An hour-long procession of tractors, ATV’s, and kids riding floats stretched from Oakland Street to the Square as area residents came together to celebrate Independence Day on a sweltering Saturday afternoon.
