She isn t a military veteran, but she deserves to be buried among them

She isn’t a military veteran, but she deserves to be buried among them After two decades serving those who served, Christine Pratt might soon get a plot in the cemetery she helped create. Share The quiet hung over the Southern Maine Veterans Memorial Cemetery like a silent prayer. The American flag, high atop a 100-foot pole, barely moved in the soft spring breeze. The headstones stood in perfect military precision, just like the veterans beneath them once did. “It’s an amazing place, isn’t it?” Christine Pratt said. “When I walk around at lunch and I see the people that I helped … it’s nice.”

Pratt helped find the location for the cemetery and developed a plan for seeing it through to completion. The cemetery opened in 2010.
