Most of my Dad's big family is buried there, including Dad, my Mom and a brother. My sister and I make the 90 mile trip twice a year. Last fall for the first time i noticed there was a flag pole and a faded thread bare flag. I pointed it out to sister and we talked on the way back. I suggested that we donate Dad's flag. It's been almost 20 years since he passed and the flag sat in a triangle box and I never noticed the flag at the cemetery.
I called the church and they really liked the idea. They replaced the rope on the flag pole and fixed the light. So today my Dad's flag (WWII vet) is finally doing what it was intended to do, honoring our Veterans, my Dad and my brother(Viet Nam vet).
