Remembering our vets
Today I picked up my mother and we went to the local veterans cemetery to place some flowers on my grandfather’s and my uncle’s gravesides. The cemetery looked very nice; there were lots of American flags flying and a lot of flowers. The caretakers of the cemetery did a good job of making the place look good. I also stayed and watched the local presentation that the town puts on, with speeches and music played by the local high school. It was a very good ceremony. After the ceremony we sat on the granite memorial bench that my mother had purchased to place near the graves. It was a good day.
