In Loving Memory of Wesley Bolden and Jordan Hall

A profound sense of sorrow has settled over Marshall County and the surrounding communities following the tragic events of Sunday evening, when a small airplane crashed near the Holly Springs–Marshall County Airport. What should have been an ordinary day ended in heartbreak, as two lives were lost far too soon. The Marshall County Sheriff’s Office has identified the victims as 29-year-old Wesley Bolden of Marshall County and 17-year-old Jordan Hall of Olive Branch, Mississippi.

This unexpected tragedy has left families, friends, and neighbors grappling with shock and grief, struggling to find words that can adequately express the depth of their loss.
