Minto streets dedicated to local veteran families

Street dedication - Roughly 40 people, including local dignitaries and family members, gathered on the morning of Oct. 29 at newly unveiled street signs in Palmerston, commemorating the lives of eight men from both the Bridge and Stephenson families who served in the First and Second World Wars. Mayor George Bridge, Perth-Wellington MP John Nater and MPP Matthew Rae provided remarks to those in attendance. See next week’s Wellington Advertiser for a Remembrance Day special report on the event and the family members who served.
