The post office in rural Henning was renamed Tuesday for U.S. Postal Service employees Paula Robinson and Judy Spray.

The women were shot by Chastain Montgomery Sr. and his 18-year-old son during a robbery of $63 in October 2010.

Chastain Montgomery Jr. was later killed in a shootout with police.

His father pleaded guilty to the killings and was sentenced to life in federal prison.
