A section of Interstate 95 from the Midway interchange south to McIntosh County has been named in honor of former Liberty County Sheriff Bobby Sikes, the son of a sheriff and the father of a sheriff.More than 75 officials, dignitaries, relatives, friends and other community members gathered Saturday at exit 76 to honor Sikes for his contributions to the community, including a law-enforcement career spanning five decades. State Rep. Al Williams, D-Midway, who introduced the House resolution authorizing the highway naming, served as master of ceremonies. Williams recounted his memories of the Sikes family, as did many other speakers.
