    We had 12 Patriots turn out today to honor MSgt Marshall’s long service to our country. What a wonderful response to this short notice mission request. The family, friends, and passerby’s as well took note of our flag line. Special thanks to Gerald Ramm of the Wilco Marine Corp League for manning the entrance with the USMC flag.

    A big thank you also to Gary Mayers for bringing the flags and staking them so nicely in advance so those entering for the earlier visitation portion saw the patriotic display before our flag line was in place.

    RIP to this long serving Marine, MSgt Robert A. Marshall Sr.
