The Veteran's Memorial Marker Committee is hosting their annual Meat on a Stick Fundraiser on June 12, 2026 from 5pm-9pm at the P.A.C.C. (175 School Street).

The Veterans Memorial Marker project was founded by Donald E. French in 2009 with local citizens forming a committee to raise funds to mark graves of all Veterans buried in Taunton with a flat aluminum medallion. Over 6000 Veterans' graves in Taunton are currently marked.

While the initial phase of this project is complete, funds raised are used to purchase markers to maintain a sufficient inventory for future graves and to support efforts for the maintenance and upkeep of local private cemeteries.

Tickets are $20 and include 1 lb of Meat and Sides. There will be a cash bar, raffles, and entertainment. Bring your own veggies!

To purchase tickets, please contact:

Pete Thomson: 508-685-3979
Doug Latham: 508-667-2237
Cindy Zanghi: 508-245-3140

Taunton Firefighter’s IAFF local 138 regrets to announce the passing of retired Taunton firefighter Martin “Marty” Smith. Marty was the driver of Ladder 3 retiring out of the Weir Station in 2013. In addition to being a firefighter, Marty was also a combat veteran serving as an Infantryman with the U.S. Army and earning two Purple Hearts during the Vietnam War. We thank Marty for his service to both the City of Taunton and our great nation. Our thoughts are with Marty’s family during this difficult time.
