The Dothan Business Hall of Fame now has five new legends.

Ranging from a dairy farmer, to an engineer the inductees backgrounds are far different from one another. There is one thing though that remains true in all of their successes; humility and dedication.

Quick to credit his fellow inductees rather than himself, Mr. John Watson said he is honored to be among this group.

"It is so great because they've done a lot in Dothan and they've made Dothan a great place to live and I've enjoyed the fruits of their work."

In addition to Mr. Watson and Mr. Bishop the 2012 honorees include, former Commissioner John Glanton, the late long-time dairy farmer Jesse Forrester, and Harry Hall who founded Dothan Federal Savings. 

Although several of the Business Hall of Fame inductees have passed their memory and words of wisdom will live on forever.

These men are seen as the "eye of the community", but for each inductee community contributions were just a way of life.
