    One of the City Council Members said they would put some pic's on their city website about the monument. Probably should give them a few days then click on this link for the website.

    Thanks to everyone who came to the dedication of this monument to the Vietnam Veterans of Granger. We had a good turnout.

    Sorry about the wait at Louie Muellers BBQ after the event.
