A ceremony to honor veterans is planned for later this week at the new Abie Abraham VA Health Care Center.
A Blue Star Memorial Marker Dedication Ceremony will be held Tuesday at 10 a.m. at the new facility on North Duffy Road.
The ceremony will include a brief history of the program as well as a military tribute, an official unveiling of the marker, patriotic music, and a color guard.
The Blue Star Program began in 1944 and honors all men and women serving in the US Armed Services. This project is co-sponsored by the Butler Garden Club and the Southern Butler County Garden Club.
