Memorial Day

A large crowd gathered Monday morning at Veterans Memorial Plaza in Sun City, Texas to commemorate Memorial Day.   I covered this for the Williamson County Sun.  Thankfully, the rain that moved in held off until everything concluded.    Of all the photos, the one that moves me most is the final scene taken, where Betty Schleder, holding back tears, salutes the retirement of the flag with the cap of her husband, World War II veteran Ben Schleder, who died just three weeks ago at age 92.
