Monument Dedication







Mapleton City dedicated a monument to the Gulf, Iraq, and Afghanistan conflict Veterans. It was a very nice dedication. Each veteran who was there stated where they served and spoke a bit about their family or what ever they wanted. Whitney gave Colby's history and spoke for us. It touches my heart that so many people genuinely are grateful for the service our young and old give for their benefit. I too am grateful to my son for his willingness to serve for me and my country. Thank you Colby! And thank you Mapleton City for your thoughtful donation.

Wow, what a neat thing. I am so proud of Colby for his decision and willingness to serve. That is not an easy thing to do. I havn't met Whitney yet but she sounds like a wonderful girl. Miss you all and have a good week

I have always been proud of Colby and his choice to serve our country. What an honorable, yet difficult thing to do. The monument is beautiful.

Oh, I just glanced at it quickly. I didnt realize that that was the temple behind him and not the monument. Doy! That makes more sense. I just thought that Mapelton City was very, very grateful for his service.
