Mr. Herrod was a member of the Bradyville church of Christ and was retired from the United States Army where he was a Staff Sergeant after 17 years of service. After retiring from the military, he eventually moved to Bradyville, TN. and loved to hangout in Woodbury. You would see him at the Iron Pig where his sister and brother-in-law owned, and he would stand on the corner just to give a friendly wave to people passing by. He was a proud Army veteran and a very proud American. He enjoyed collecting coins and knives, fishing and rescuing animals.
