I wanted to share with you something that my sister and I thought up about a year ago. Kym and I wanted to honor our fallen troops in some way and this is what we came up with. This memorial represents our fallen troops from Michigan, our home state. Each cross bears the rank, name, hometown and DOD of each soldier. We support our Troops in all that they do!!! Sad to say, one of our neighbors is now protesting, calling it a "graveyard". We will fight this.
We definitely did not do this on our own. We had a lot of help. My husband and uncles made the crosses. (One uncle who is a Vietnam Vet and Purple Heart recipient. He is also Treasurer for our local MOFPH) Our mom, aunts, and cousins also helped. We thank them every day for their participation.
Thank you,
Leah Mroz
