One such person who came to my mind was Robert Henry Bell who was the father of Carney Bell who we all have know so long as being involved in the funeral business here in Springfield.
...
Robert Bell had three children: Robert Bell Jr., Linda Bell and Carney Rickman Bell.

Carney Rickman Bell
I think everyone who has lived in Robertson County very long knows of Carney Bell at Austin & Bell Funeral Home in Springfield.He is the son of Robert H. Bell mentioned previously.
Carney graduated from Springfield High School in 1951.He served as a page in Congress for Congressman Albert Gore in 1949.Carney attended Tennessee Tech University from 1951 to 1953 and then in October joined the U.S. Navy as an aviation cadet.His training took place in Pensacola, Fla. and Corpus Christi, Texas.He received his wings in 1955.
...
Carney is married to Bonnie Davis Bell and is living on a secluded farm near Cedar Hill.
...
Carney and his father have been very valuable assets to our town and community and in remembrance of our military people who served our country we recognize their service to our community and country.
