The North Texas Fallen Warrior Portrait Project will present six portraits of Collin County men who died while in the service of their country. The portraits will be presented in a ceremony at 11 a.m. June 6 at the Russell A. Steindam Courts Building, 2100 Bloomdale Road, McKinney.

The portraits will be added to the 82 already on display in the Hall of Heroes in the courthouse. There are 431 names engraved on the Wall of Honor at the Collin County Veterans Memorial Park in McKinney, and the goal of the project is to put as many faces as possible with those names.

The six faces being added to the Hall of Heroes are Jasper T. Smith, Jerral W. Derryberry, Harold Lee Derryberry, Gunn L. Anderson, Martin Leroy Rodgers and Howell Lloyd "Bud" Lacy.

The North Texas Fallen Warrior Portrait Project is privately funded and sponsored by American Legion “Bill Bryan” Post 110, VFW “Lone Star” Post 2150 and Collin County Freedom Fighters. The portraits are created by Colin Kimball, a McKinney artist and U.S. Air Force veteran who donates the portraits to the project. More information can be found on the project’s Facebook page.
