Quilts Of Valor
October 01, 2025

During the LaGrange School reunion, three LaGrange Alumni and one former teacher, all Viet Nam era veterans were presented quilts by Linda Bringer Prior, also a LaGrange High School graduate, during the program for the LaGrange School. Honored with quilts were veterans, pictured are Terry Hawkins, Mervin Sharkey (former teacher who was drafted and had to leave his teaching job at LaGrange High School), Gary Bunch and Roger Evans. It was a very special tribute, and was a memorial part of the reunion. To nominate a veteran for a quilt, visit the quilts of valor website.
