WW II veteran to lead Memorial Day Parade in Seymour
My friend Jean Falbo-Sosnovich, New Haven Register correspondent extraordinaire, wrote a story about Anthony Bunk, a 92-year old U.S. Navy veteran of World War II leading Seymour's Memorial Day Parade.
He will lead the march with Beacon Falls First Selectman Chris Bielik, also a Navy veteran who served as a commander from 1982 to 2004.
I'm sharing Jean's story here.
And from Derby Town/City Clerk Marc Garofalo:
A memorial service will be held at 7:30 p.m. Sunday at Derby High School, 6 Nutmeg Ave., Derby.
All veterans who died since May 1, 2015 will be remembered by calling their names and presenting a rose to their family.
A list of those veterans from Derby who died this past year can be found at:
