Honoring veterans

Volunteers display flags purchased as part of a project to honor military veterans buried at the Cedar Hill and Rusk Memorial cemeteries. Cherokee County residents are invited to sponsor a $50 nylon flag that will be displayed three times a year at the local cemeteries. Shown from left are Robert Scott, Joann Hart, Marcia Morgan, Mary Walley and Ronny McLeroy. Hart, Walley and McLeroy are members of the city’s cemetery advisory board.
