Ceremony at Seymour Middle School recognizes veterans

The Rev. Russell Lesiw, retired pastor, Seymour Evangelical Baptist Church, prepares his remarks prior to last week's Veterans Wartime Service Medal Ceremony at Seymour Middle School. 
The ceremony was sponsored by state Rep. Theresa W. Conroy, D-Seymour, in conjunction with the Connecticut Department of Veterans' Affairs.

Seymour Middle School band students watch as members of American Legion Post 10 of Seymour present the colors at the start of a solemn ceremony in the school auditorium. 
The ceremony recognized 36 local veterans.
