St. Francis Manor

Activity Directors Courtney Michalek and Jessie Schaffner lead the Veterans Day Program with prayers, poetry and explained the history behind Veterans Day and how it began. While taking a moment of silence to remember our Veterans  that have passed, “Taps” played and Corporal Justin Goodrich presented a flag to Mim Peters. Bob Peters, her husband who passed away this year, was a WWII Veteran. Playing music from each branch of the military, those with loved ones lost and those alive who served stood for the branch they served. The program concluded with the singing of the National Anthem and God Bless America.

Many Seeland Park members and families of St. Francis Manor residents brought in war memorabilia for attendees to view. Special thanks to the activities department for coordinating this event and to those who made and served a variety of tasty food.
