Honoring Our Vets

I was very proud of Shayne today. His Scout Troop put flags on veterans graves. He took this very seriously. The VFW post did a short service and shot guns and plays Taps on the bugle.

We were at FeeFee Cemetery. As long as I've lived in this area I have never stopped there and looked. I was amazed at how old some of the graves are. And at the history of our community that are buried there. Names that now are street names. Adie, Hanley, Shumate. Some dated back to the Revolutionary War and the Spanish American War. I think Shayne enjoyed being a part of this memorial.
