UPPER LAKE – A local veterans monument has a new look thanks to the work of local veterans and supporters.


Frank Parker, Ron Quick and Ginny Craven worked last week to restore the honor and dignity appropriate to the 1966 Lester D. Grigsby, Post 764, American Legion flagpole at Upper Lake Cemetery.


May is National Military Appreciation Month and Veterans Appreciation Month. Memorial Day also will be commemorated later this month.
