Recorded on 21 November 2018 - Wise County Texas
Members of WCVG participated as Honor Guard for the funeral of Korean War Vet, Jessie Monroe on Jan 14, 2019. Jessie is Father-in-law, to WCVG Member, Paul Duffley.
Our good friend and WCVG member, John Norcross died today, August 16, 2019. It was sudden and unexpected.

Rest in Peace John Norcross
