SHERBURNE – In honor of the sacrifice of service men and women, the Sherburne American Legion, Post 876, held a Veterans Day ceremony in the village park on Tuesday to pay respects, and to add a new name to the village’s veteran monument.

“Out of blood and sweat, we learned of purpose, sacrifice, tolerance, bravery and discipline,” said opening speaker and American Legion Post 876 adjutant John Nixon. “These are solid foundation stones upon which a great nation is built. In our continuing quest for honorable world peace, we must cultivate these virtues.”
