On Sunday morning, July 4, flags will go up at the Oak Grove Cemetery beginning at 7:30 a.m. Volunteers are needed to help with this patriotic task. The flags come down again at 3 p.m., and if you are not an early riser and want to help then, please come!
There is a hole in the Red Stocking and everywhere else on Island, too. Barbara Silvia, faithful friend, wife, mother, hard worker, and volunteer, died last week and I did not know as we went to press. How much fun I had with her over the years! She was always smiling, always laughing, always bubbly. Barbara worked so hard for the Red Stocking Fund, only one of her many charities. Our sympathy to her family, friends and indeed, all of us.
