Fleet Reserve will honor the fallen

The Fleet Reserve Association, Show Me Branch 32, is offering its services free of charge to families who have lost a Navy, Marines or Coast Guard veteran.

Members of the branch will perform a two-bell ceremony at local funerals. The two bells rung throughout the ceremony signify the passing of departed shipmates and is usually presented by a three-man team.

The branch requests that families notify them three days in advance of the funeral.

To request a ceremony, call E. Dale Turner at 660-886-6463.
