Pictured (Left to RIght) Greenwood Police Officer RJ Whitworth, Brooke Whitworth, and Michelle Cox stand outside the Greenwood Walmart in support of Greenwood Police Officer, Josh Mourton who was recently diagnosed with colon cancer, and is currently undergoing treatment.
As you approach the tent that stands in front of the Greenwood Walmart, you can’t help but notice the banner hanging from a table that states, “Josh Mourton has been there for us now let’s be there for him.” Those words are meaningful, and true. We ALL can do our part to support Officer Mourton.
Family, and friends of the Mourton family, and Greenwood Police Officers are currently selling T-shirts, “Support the Blue” flags, wristbands, decals, and other items to help raise funds that will go directly to Mourton’s hospital bills.
PLANNED TENT LOCATIONS to SUPPORT JOSH MOURTON
Today, and tomorrow at the Greenwood Walmart
Friday night, Greenwood vs. Alma football game at Smith Robinson Stadium in Greenwood
Saturday afternoon, Waldron Fairgrounds
Saturday morning, Yard Sale on the Greenwood Square
Brooke Whitworth, one of the many Mourton volunteers, and wife of Greenwood Police Officer Whitworth, stated “We’ve seen an amazing level of support. This is just one amazing aspect of living in a community that cares. We will have a new shipment of shirts with multiple styles and colors available very soon.”
There is also a benefit raffle for an Diamondback DB-15. 223 (Grand Prize), a Ruger .243 rifle (2nd prize), and Arkansas Razorback tickets, bean bag toss game, and Razorback chest (3rd prize). Tickets can be purchased at the Greenwood Police Dept, or where ever the “Support Mourton” tent is located.
Editor’s Note: RESIDENT PRESS supports you Officer Mourton. God Bless you, and may He lay His healing hand upon you. Thank you Officer Whitworth, Brooke, and Michelle for volunteering your time, and supporting Officer Mourton.
