The mayors of two Henry County cities were recently honored for their contributions to their respective communities.
The City of Stockbridge has renamed its City Hall for outgoing Mayor R.G. "Rudy" Kelley. The Henry County Board of Commissioners also recently approved a resolution to rename North Forty Park in Hampton for Hampton Mayor R.W. Coley, and his late wife, Mary Lou.
