Photographs from Memorial Day 2009 ceremony at Grand View Cemetery in Anacortes. First among the photos is the grave of Roy P. Jung. Jung, a Pfc. in the U.S. Army during World War II, was awarded the Bronze Star Medal. He was born in 1925 and died in 2001. The first of three veterans pictured are Bud Lane and Roland Greenfield.
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
