Working in the Old State Bank and as the director of the Decatur Historic Union Depot brings the Judge a great deal of joy. As a member of a family of historians, these jobs come naturally. The Judge spends his days showing people some of Decatur’s history and supporting our city’s growth and development. Judge Breland himself is Positively Historic!
