KofC Bishop Fenwick Assembly 100 was so honored to be a part of the Annual Flag placing at St John Cemetery on Saturday, May 18th. A big thanks King Industries for sponsoring the event and inviting the Assembly to provide an Color Guard.
Hundreds of people met at St. Johns Cemetery Saturday to lay flags on grave sites and remember those who have helped protect our freedom.
Volunteers placed flags on the graves of more than 5,000 military veterans across eight Norwalk cemeteries.
The annual event, hosted by King Industries, takes place right around Memorial Day. Organizers say the purpose is to remind people that the day is about more than sales or barbecues, it’s about those who have served, continue to serve and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
