Veterans Visit Mercy

Mercy was honored to welcome several veterans this past week as guest speakers in Ms. Antons' US History classes. Many of these men do this service for Mercy History classes every year and we are privileged to have them share their stories with our students, putting a personal spin on this facet of US history.

The veterans who served during World War II were Jack Snyder, Jim Copenhaver, Jerry Riga and Tom Anderson. Korean War veterans were George Robben, Bill Cornell, Roger Sand and Don Willwerth. Vietnam War veterans Jack Taphorn, Gary Overby, Pete Rebold and Jerry Rowland were joined by Gulf War veteran Steve Murray.

Mercy salutes our veterans!
