Dedication of Cemetery Veteran's Monument

Wednesday, November 11, 2009

The graves of many veterans who have faithfully served our country during times of peace and war lie in our parish cemetery. The property committee and Vestry approved a design for a veteran's monument for the cemetery. A portion of the monument's cost was donated by the White Bear Lake American Legion, Schoenrock Monument Company, and Parker and Son’s Cemetery Services. On Veteran’s Day, Wednesday, November 11th at 2 pm we held a service in the cemetery to dedicate this new marker. The dedication service included a color guard and a traditional 3 volley salute.
