We drove by the church yesterday. What a beautiful sight! Thanks to all who volunteered to put the flags out, it must have been quite a bit of work. I hope people go over to North Tewksbury and drive by the church. The flags are food for thought.

My daughter (5) asked me what memorial day was for yesterday. I am going to bring her to see this today to help explain. Beautiful.

We also want to thank a group of Veterans from the Tewksbury VFW for assisting us in placing the flags. A BIG Thank you.
