Honoring Those Who Served

Cranberry's Veterans of Foreign Wars Post #897 held its annual Memorial Day celebration at North Boundary Park Sunday.

Retired Marine Capt. Umberto Cerminara spoke to attendees. The Ohio Valley Marine Corps League Detachment #882 also led a color guard salute.

After student Kate Ahlgren sang the National Anthem, veterans presented six memorial wreaths, accompanied by Seneca Valley High School trumpet players Matt Graf and Josh Selling.

White doves also were released in remembrance of American prisoners of war and soldiers who remain missing in action.

Check back with Cranberry Patch on Monday for more photos and details of the event.
