View all 49 ReflectionsThe crosses where Brett died had fallen into disrepair, litter accumulated and flowers were outdated this spring. I fixed all the crosses, removed the litter and faded flowers and replaced them with new ones. Also added a US flag to Brett's cross. I plan to continue this while I live in Page.
