The Knights of Pythias paid tribute to local veterans in Wallaceburg recently, holding a special ham dinner.

The K of P raised $200 for the Wallaceburg Veterans and Families Support Group.

Jerry Blake, K of P member, said the main reason for the dinner was to help the group in the task of marking or providing markers for the unmarked graves of servicemen and women.

“They also provide a support group to educate each other and the public on how to deal with post traumatic stress syndrome,” Blake said.

The dinner was held Sunday, Oct. 4.
