Lantana Cub Scout Alex Beardsley holds back a tear while remembering his grandfather,
Ed Beardsley, who served in the Army in Panama. Alex was part of a group
of Delray Beach Scouts that replaced a worn American flag at the intersection of A1A and Atlantic Avenue.

More than 150 people honored the nation’s fallen heroes during ceremonies at South Palm Beach Town Hall.
Featured speakers were Florida Sen. Jeff Clemens, Rabbi Leibel Stolik of Chabad of South Palm Beach
and the Rev. Ronald Williams of First Baptist Church of Lantana.
Veronica and Marializ De Jesus, daughters of Town Clerk Maylee De Jesus, entertained the crowd with their baton twirling.
