The first graders at our school complete a Veterans Day project each year that requires them to visit the Veterans Memorial in town. Collin and Reagan both did this in first grade, and during one visit when we were looking for the names of relatives on the memorial, Reagan noticed that Great Grandpa Paskowski did not have a brick on the memorial walkway. She said that she wanted to get him a brick, and I said we would work on that.
Reagan is now in third grade, and we FINALLY followed through with the purchase of the brick. Over the summer, we visited the veterans agent and completed the paperwork. At that time, Reagan presented Grandpa with a copy of the brick order and a card that she made for him.
The brick was laid and we attended the ceremony honoring all veterans on Veterans Day.
After the ceremony, we went to Jerry Remy's for lunch.
Great Grandpa gave Reagan a nice card thanking her for the brick.
I'm sure this Veterans Day will always be very memorable for our family.
