Remembering our veterans

| May 23, 2019

COSHOCTON – Rick Cullison places a flag on a veteran’s grave at South Lawn Cemetery on Saturday, May 18. This is the first year he has helped place flags here, but he has been in the Honor Guard for four years. He said, “It’s just something little I can do to honor veterans and show my appreciation.” According to Patty Dilly, of the veteran’s office in Coshocton about a dozen volunteers would be placing 1,800 flags at South Lawn. Dilly said, “We put flags on every veteran’s grave, from the Revolutionary War to present day. About 6,600 flags will be placed throughout the county before Memorial Day.”

I started my journalism career in 2002 with a daily newspaper chain. After various stops with them, I am happy to be back home! I graduated from Coshocton High School in 1998 and received a Bachelor of Arts in Communication in 2002 from Walsh University. I also earned several awards while working for daily papers, including being honored by Coshocton County’s veterans for the stories I wrote about them. I am honored and ready to once again shine a positive light on Coshocton County. I also am the proud mother of a little girl named Sophia!
