Title: Memorial Day
Post by: mo.eagles on May 24, 2020, 08:05:45 PM
May everyone have a safe weekend. Since the Boy Scouts were not out this weekend, my sister in-law started a group to place flags on certain graves at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery. She got responses and donations from all over so Saturday morning we went out and placed 70 flags on the graves of American heroes. Talked with several wives, sons, daughters, family members that had come to pay respects. We asked if we could place a flag on their loved ones grave. Not once were we turned away. We talked with the families about their looses and everyone involved was blessed. Will be doing this more often.
