Veterans Day Memorial in Venasque

Gathered at the city hall, we followed the school children to the memorial in honor of the "glorious dead" from World War I 1914-1918.  The Mayor presented a diploma to one of the six survivors of WWII, left in the Vaucluse department of Provence. The children sang "The Marseillaise" to him and we processed around the statue and back to the city hall for "Un Pot"...a drink and snack, offered by the city hall.
                 













      To all the veteran's around the world,
       who sacrificed their live for the cause of
          Liberte, Egalite et Fraternite...Freedom,   Liberty and Justice for all!
      MAY YOU REST IN PEACE.
