This week's cover - A star spangled hug

Charlotte Ruby Quinn, a member of the Monroe School Student Council, broke ranks and gave her grandpa, Jonathan Siedlecki, a hug before he and other veterans were served lunch. Siedlecki served in the Army during the Vietnam years. The vets were guests at Monroe School's Veterans Day Program Nov. 11, during which students from each grade sang songs honoring the veterans and the day. A "thank you to our veterans" slideshow was presented as well. (Jim Slonoff photo)
