Milton still has a few missing veterans
The Milton memorial service for the WWII veterans, set for September 28, has received strong support from the community, and specifically from the families of those men and women being honored, for which we are most grateful.
They continue to seek out relatives of all the 124 honorees, at this point they are asking for help in locating those who are descendants of Arthur and Earl Peek, Orville Pence, Everett Allen Phillips, William Renoud, Sidney Morris Ragsdale or Claude Wayne Ritter.
They are hoping to have representatives of these men help in the ceremony by orally reading their names. This could be a child, grandchild, niece, nephew or even a close friend. If you have any information on a possible connection, please contact [email protected]. Thank you.
