Crowds of area residents lined Third Street Tuesday to greet the procession carrying the body of Airman 1st Class Kcey E. Ruiz into Jackson.

Led by law enforcement officers, with a helicopter flyover, the procession made its way from Tara Field Tuesday afternoon, through Griffin and into Jackson bound for the Lewis Sims and Son Funeral Home.
