Royle Luker procession

Today at approximately 1:00 PM, WWII Veteran Royle Luker will be passing through Russellville on his way to the funeral home in Dardanelle.
Royle Luker was killed in action during the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, while serving our country. For more than 80 years, his remains were unidentified until a DNA match in 2025 finally brought him home.
Sheriff Wilson encourages everyone who is able to come out along the route to show their respect and support for this American hero and his family. Let us honor Royle Luker’s sacrifice and welcome him home with the dignity and gratitude he deserves.
Please keep the Luker family and all who served in your thoughts and prayers.

Keeping everyone safe!

For Sheriff Blake Wilson, it was just another day on the job. One minute he’s handling calls and keeping the peace, the next he’s responding to a “slow-moving traffic situation” caused by a turtle with no regard for the speed limit.
Protecting the community doesn’t always mean high-speed chases or flashing lights. Sometimes, it means giving a stubborn little reptile a safe es**rt across the road before it causes the county’s longest traffic jam. Around here, Sheriff Wilson serves and protects everyone, big and small, fast and very, very slow.
