Leelanau Township Cemetery held a Memorial Day service featuring veteran speakers, the Northport Community Band, Village Voices, and Scout Troop 131 to honor those who have died while serving in the armed forces.
The Memorial Day service began with the Northport Community Band and the high school band playing “Taps.” After the song, Suttons Bay Scout Troop 131 presented and raised the flag to half-staff. This brought Stef Staley, the event’s emcee, to gather everyone for the National Anthem, played by the community band, along with the Village Voice and the Pledge of Allegiance.
Pastor Jerry Lange from Northport Evangelical Covenant Church led an invocation in which he honored those who have fallen in combat.
