“Father, as we gather today, we are excited about what you’ve done here over the past 100 years,” Burnett said. “We’re so thankful for the community that you’ve brought together, for the lives that you’ve touched here through the city and, Lord, as we celebrate this day we also are thankful that it is a transition to another 100 years.
“We look forward to seeing what you will do in the future and we thank you that you, who started the good work in this place, will be faithful to complete it."
Approximately 200 people listened to Burnett and other speakers, including Mayor David Cadle, Main Street Crestview representative Pat Hollarn, Sen. Don Gaetz, County Commissioners Wayne Harris, Nathan Boyles and Carolyn Ketchel, Judge Michael Flowers and historical re-enactor James Moore, among others.
