CAROLYN’S COMPOSITIONS
MEMORIAL DAY

Charles F. Walker: Lamoine, ME
Today is Memorial Day, a day when a flag is placed on the gravesite of an “unidentified Civil War Veteran” in the East Lamoine Cemetery in East Lamoine, Maine.
Simultaneously, this very small community has a Civil War Veteran whose gravesite cannot be located.
Could the two be a match? The story of Charles F. Walker can be read at:
