County to rename sports complex in Ratliff’s honor
For nearly 30 years Glenn Ratliff was a fixture at recreational sporting events, donning a referee’s whistle or umpire’s face mask to call many youth and school athletic contests.
Seeking to ensure that future generations of youth sports participants never forget the legacy left by longtime City Recreation Department Director Glenn Ratliff, who died earlier this month, the Taylor County Commission is moving to name the Taylor County Sports Complex in his honor.
Commissioner Jim Moody asked the board to consider the proposal during the commission’s meeting held Tuesday morning.
