Also, wasn't there kind of kerfuffle w/ Winters monument in ephrata? Where to put if at all?
ReplyDeleteWinters daughter said her father wouldn't have wanted all the notoriety that came with a monument, but the committee in Ephrata said that he was too big a hero to not recognize him for the service he gave to his country. So the wishes of the family were places second to the wishes of the Ephrata committee.
ReplyDeleteGood for the community. Daughter & Winters will understand in time.
