There is no doubt that Gen. Seth McKee should be included on the Wall of Fame here in Cape Girardeau. The fact that he wasn't initially included is shameful, as is the waffling and posturing of various folks quoted in the recent article.

Then allow those who support his inclusion to do the work necessary to make it happen.
Tip of the hat to County Assessor's office and Bob Adams, the new online filing for the personal property form is great.

I also suspect it saves labor on their end too.
