Wreath trip to Arlington Cemetary in Virginia
by Harry and Florence Lear
(Topsfield, MA 01983)
Many thanks to all the folks at the Worcester Wreath Co. for their wonderful trip to Arlington Cemetary. A group of Veterans and friends from 6 towns were at Route l, Topsfield to see the convoy go by Monday pm Dec. 10th. Even though the schedule was a little late, it was a great experience for us standing at the entrance to the Topsfield Fair Grounds. The veterans were honored to stand at attention with their flags and salute as the two trailer trucks loaded with wreaths, and many support vehicles rode south.
Some friends and family were thrilled to be part of it in Topsfield, MA and realize what a huge undertaking this trip is for The Worcester Wreath Co.
Our blessings and best wishes are with you all for a safe journey to Virginia and back home.
Merry Christmas and Happy and Healthy New Year to all. Thank you for the many e-mails and phone calls that make the stops and viewing along the way possible.
Veterans and friends.
SFC Harry W. Lear, Jr., and David Comeau, (Commander), Post 255 American Legion, Topsfield, Mass.
