Veterans Honored at Town Hall

Weston Today photos

Cold weather moved Weston’s annual Veterans Day ceremony indoors on Tuesday morning. Veterans and an audience were welcomed in the Town Hall Meeting Room by Matt Vanlandingham of the town’s Veteran Affairs Committee.

The National Anthem was sung by the Weston High School Choral Group, a tribute to veterans was delivered by First Selectwoman Samantha Nestor, and Deacon Steve Hodson of St. Francis of Assisi offered a prayer.

Navy veteran James Day spoke about the meaning of service and how it extends beyond the military to the “daily work to be a community that deserves defending.”

The ceremony ended with a presentation of thank-you cards by Weston Daisies to veterans in the room, as pictured in the photo above.
