This year’s Christmas Parade in downtown Fayetteville had a classic ring to it with this 1937 Ford that was once owned by former Fayette County Sheriff M.G. Sams, who served from 1936 to 1942. Joining current Sheriff Barry Babb in walking alongside the vehicle was Daren the Lion from the office’s Drug Abuse Resistance Education program that sends an anti-drug message to local students.
