Memorial Day. May We Never Forget - 05/21/09 05:02 PM
Wanted to say to all my Fellow Veterans on here that I hope they have a great Memorial Day and that all of us never forget what this Day is all about. I want to invite anyone who may want to come to our Memorial Day Service here in Paducah come Monday. We start out at 8:30 am at the court house square with coffee and doughnuts, then we will have the Memorial Day Program which will consist of YOURS TRULY doing the opening and closing Prayer. Also the raising of the flag, a little Singing and also roll call for the last years Veterans from Cottle County who have passed. I am posting a couple of pics of what we do here in Cottle County. Every year before Memorial Day we hammer crosses into the Court House Lawn of all of the deceased Veterans from Cottle County. This year we hammered in 845 crosses. Here is two of my Kiddos next to the Cross of their Grandfather (my Wifes Dad).
Here is what it looks like when we are done:
