On December 26, Fredrick Potter, formerly of Waldron, turned 89 years young. This day in 2018 is particularly special as the Mayor of the City of Alma, where Potter currently resides, proclaimed 12/26 as “Fredrick Rodney Potter Day in Alma.”
Potter has been in an ongoing civil court battle with niece Cassandra Holmes since 2013. Since that time Potter has moved from Waldron to Alma. Mayor Keith Greene described Potter as a “citizen in good standing and through his actions, career, determination to succeed, and inspiration to others, personifies the true nature of how a person can by his example make today a better time for our leaders of tomorrow.”
Green went on to describe Potter’s service record in the United States Marines and Army including a deployment to Korea during the Korean War and in Germany. Additionally, according to the proclamation, Potter has served in the California Army National Guard.
Congratulations to Potter on this great honor, and from all of us at Resident Press, happy birthday!
