She greeted the crowd and explained what Wreaths Across America does and yge important role it has in our area. Eric Seib, who currently serves as the City Planner for the town of Jay, also played an important role and also spoke. Seib is a recently retired member od the U.S. Navy.

Members of JHS’ Student Government Association also assisted in the event as well.
