BILLY WEISS AMERICAN LEGION POST 527 AND VFW POST 8337 WILL HOLD TWO MEMORIAL DAY CEREMONIES ON MONDAY, MAY 27th,  AND YOU AND YOURS ARE CORDIALLY INVITED!!!!

A brief "laying of the wreath ceremony" will be conducted at 9:00 A.M. by the Veterans' Memorial on the corner of Mill Road and Hwy. 42. Then at 10:30 A.M. everyone will go out to the Little Sister Cemetery on Little Sister Road. At the beginning of that ceremony members of American Legion Post 527, VFW Post 8337 and the Boy Scouts will march to the Eldred and Millie Koepsel Memorial Flag Pole. The flag will then be lowered to half staff, and Rev. Dawn Volpe of the Ephraim Church will lead an invocation. After that the First Baptist Church Choir will sing and the Gibraltar Band will play a medley of military songs. Commander John Stone, Captain of the USS Mobil Bay, and our Assemblyman and Post 527 Service Officer, Garey Bies, will be featured speakers. The names of deceased Northern Door veterans will then be read by Don and Davis Sitte, and well known buglar Dale Seaquist will play taps for the 66th consecutive year. The service will conclude with the singing of "God Bless America", led by Amanda Larson of Ephraim.

Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to pay tribute to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
