During the Veteran's Day ceremonies on the Butler courthouse lawn, the Honor Quilters chapter of the Quilts of Valor Foundation awarded 15 beautiful hand-made quilts to local veterans. It was windy day, but it was a great ceremony. The high school band played, Windsday Grissom beautifully sang the National Anthem, Cale Swarnes, a (2x) Purple Heart recipient was the guest speaker, and the veterans were honored with quilts. We were blessed to be a part of this remembrance event.
Those receiving quilts today were (Picture 1, R-L, Greg Bartimus, Tom McGuire, Wayne Baird, Don Constransitch, Stephen Dixon, Larry Hess, Richard Kephart, Mike Nelson, (Picture 2) Phillip Martin, and (Picture 3, R-L) Jared Fuller, Amber Kash, Randy Kash, Robert Kyle, Scott McElwain, Cale Swarnes.
Thank you to these veterans for their service in defending our freedoms- Our thanks to Rocking Chair Quilts of Butler
