The photo above, of Marines in Iraq kneeling in prayer over a fallen comrade/warrior last April 2 was one of ex-Commish Ron Rankin's favorites. I know. We discussed it on more than one occasion. This afternoon, U.S. Sen. Larry Craig, Alice Rankin and others are going to meet at Ron's Veterans Memorial at the courthouse to kickoff fund-raising efforts to raise the $2,400 for a final stone mural that'll show this scene from last April 2. Donations will go to the Kootenai County Veterans Memorial c/o the Commissioners.

Let's show our appreciation for The Ronfather's service to this community by funding one more.
