We mourn the passing today of our friend and colleague Chief Robert Connor, Jr. Robert's family has lived in Columbus, Texas, and Colorado County for more years than we know. His grandfather organized one, if not the, biggest black cowboy rodeos in Texas. It was held on family land where Robert had recently rebuilt an arena for youth competition. His father had been a city police officer in Columbus many years ago. And Robert became the city's first African American Chief of Police some fourteen years ago. Robert had many honors including repeated election to the post of Most Worshipful Grand Master of the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Texas. (David and Linda had the honor to be his guest at the Annual Prince Hall Banquet held in Houston last June.) Robert served as Police Chief under David in Columbus for the past two and a half years. They established a bond of trust, respect and friendship. David was proud of Chief Connor. He will be missed personally and professionally.
