Flags were once again placed at veterans' graves at St. Mary's Cemetery on County Rd for Memorial Day. The effort was overseen by Post member Bill Vincent with help from Stan Lichwala, Al Meyers, and Joe Orzechowski. And, thanks to all the helping hands from the Knights of Columbus Trinity Assembly 726, we were done placing over 250 flags in well under an hour.
