MEMORIAL DAY PREPARATIONS


Memorial Day is fast approaching and we have been getting ready for the celebration, when we raise around 170 large flags in the Frontenac City Cemetery and Mt.Carmel Catholic Cemetery. Frank Grilz is our main flag guy, spending many hours making sure the poles are clean and in good repair. The flagpoles are inserted into pipes buried in the ground along the route, and must be cleaned out and often repaired. Here Frank and his grandson Luke Amershek stop for a picture as they finish up their work.
