The Grave Concerns Association thanks Becky Huber and the Lakewood Historical Society for allowing us to share their booth. First we had a concert at the cemetery with Rj's Express Band and raised a flag for the first time on our new flagpole that was installed by the Lakewood Parks Department, thanks so much!
The weather could not have been better, it was a great day.
