WAR MEMORIAL DEDICATION IN CABOT
Sunday, June 25, 2006

There will be a dedication and formal unveiling of the new plaque honoring the men and women from Cabot who served in Korea and Vietnam. Dedication services will begin at 2 p.m. at the memorial in front of Willey Hall on Main Street in Cabot. There will be refreshments and socalizing in the Willey Hall after the dedication.

Frank L. "Larry" Thompson, CWO USN Ret., Sgt. Brian Houghton, Erma Perry, Myra Houston, Bill Walters and Walter Celley, all of Cabot, worked for over two years to research and document the names of those who served from Cabot. There are 28 Korean era veterans and 49 Vietnam era veterans on the new honor roll which is attached to the existing WWI and WWII Memorial. (Photo by Bill Walters)

There will be an honor guard, patriotic music and speakers to celebrate the completion of the memorial and to thank those who, with donations of money or their time, made this project happen.

Mark your calendar and come join with friends and neighbors in Cabot and surrounding towns as we celebrate and honor those men and women who have served their country. I'll see you there!
