I would like to thank Chris Carlisle, manager of the Alexandria Bay FX Caprara car dealership, for coming through again for the World War II veterans of LaFargeville Klock-Smith American Legion Post. Mr. Carlisle has supplied us with a vehicle for the Memorial Day parade in LaFargeville for the last several years.

His cooperation made it possible for the World War II veterans to travel in style. The community should be grateful for his generosity and community spirit.
