THURMAN — Volunteer Patricial Filie was not deterred by the coronavirus pandemic in her efforts to bring Wreaths Across America to Tyn Rhos Cemetery for its fourth year.
While many services around the country were canceled, Filie and other volunteers managed to lay 66 wreaths on veterans graves during last Saturday’s ceremony.
Services were held inside the First Church of the Southern Ohio Welsh Pioneers adjacent to the cemetery. COVID-19 safety practices were followed, including leaving the church door open to the cold and rainy elements of the day.
