MONDAY’S MEMORIAL DAY SERVICE AT THE PRESCOTT CITIZENS CEMETERY WAS WELL ATTENDED BY MANY CITY DIGNITARIES, VETERANS AND RESIDENTS. THE PROGRAM STARTED WITH OPENING REMARKS FROM MAYOR PHIL GOODE AND HAD THIS TO SAY ABOUT THE MEMORIAL DAY CEREMONY…

MAYOR GOODE STATED THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF NOT ONLY OUR CULTURE IN THE CITY, BUT OUR HISTORY, AND APPRECIATION FOR THE MANY VETERANS THE RESIDE HERE IN PRESCOTT.

THE CEREMONY ENDED WITH THE PLAYING OF TAPS AND A 21 GUN SALUTE TO HONOR AND RECOGNIZE THOSE VETERANS WHO PAID THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE FOR OUR COUNTRY AND OUR FREEDOMS.
