I spoke at the Orion Memorial Day Service. The Orion Community Band performed and sounded great. Sofia Alleruzo, an Orion 5th grader, did an awesome job singing our National Anthem. Her performance was powerful.

After the service, we visited the two local cemeteries. Thank you to the Orion VFW, American Legion and Auxiliary for a great lunch.
