Another chance to help the Mercer County honor marker program. The effort aims to properly recognize veterans buried at local cemeteries. It began five years ago says organizer Jay Doherty.
Doherty says if you’d like to contribute to the cause, donations can be mailed to the Aledo American Legion, 2000 State Highway 17, Aledo, IL 61231. Write “honor marker” in the check’s memo field.
