Memorial Day thank you

Magnificent is the only word adequate to describe the paths of flags waving proudly as the sun shone on them entering the Maple Hill Cemetery.

The memorial and eternal flame established to honor our veterans are such a wonderful way to say thank you to all who served our nation and community – and to those serving now.

We all need to thank the American Legion and V.F.W. members for their service in one of the nation’s armed forces, and as they continue to serve this community.

Much dedication and hard work has gone into obtaining the flags, establishing the veterans’ memorial and eternal flame. It takes much work to maintain the memorial and flag.

It takes time and hard work to set up the flags for Memorial Day and to take them down.

It also takes money for these memorials and flags. It would be a good thing to donate for these memorials. I am sending a donation at the same mailing of this letter.

Thank you to the members of the American Legion and V.F.W. and other volunteers.
