May 27, 2024 Memorial Day “A Day to remember our fallen veterans”.
Although the weather limited the Morrison Hayes Post 702 Wellsville American Legion Family from doing services at Veteran Memorial Park, services were held at Post 702, 23 Jefferson Street, Wellsville, NY and attended by approximately 100 people.
Michael Hennessy, Allegany County Veterans Service Officer was master of ceremonies presiding over the somber service. He announced the veterans from the Wellsville area that passed away during the past year.
Wreaths were placed by the Morrison Hayes Post 702 American Legion Family, Wellsville BPOE Elks, Frank B Church VFW, Wellsville Moose Lodge and the Wellsville Fire Department.
The Morrison Hayes American Legion Color Guard stood at attention and the Firing Squad did a 21 gun salute with taps being played for our fallen veterans.
