Port Arthur soldier  Mayor Bobbie Prince showed her support for
Maddox and his family.  As the clouds masked the sun on a gloomy
Saturday morning, Southeast Texans attempted to shine some light
on a dark and somber mood by displaying their American flags as
a sign of respect and support for Sgt. Anthony Maddox and his
family at the Port Arthur soldier’s funeral at Antioch
Missionary Baptist Church in Beaumont.  Maddox, 22, of Port
Arthur, was killed Monday, July 22, in a work-related fuel
explosion in Afghanistan that left him burned over 97 percent of
his body.
