A small portion of the proceeds from the sale
of the DVD will go toward the
new stage proposed for Veteran's Park in Manito.


The DVD is over an hour and a half long and includes all the major speakers from the 4 day event: Col. Robbie Robertson, Col. Fred Allen, Phillip Frederick, Norm Lacer and Gerald Stallings. Each of the speaker's talks are accompanied with correlating photos and video that help visually enhance the speaker's remarks. Also included are; several slideshows set to music specially acquired for this DVD; the Pekin High School Honor Guard's POW/MIA ceremony; Rev. Shane Smith singing "American Soldier" with accompanying video and photos; the Candle Light Vigil; the Procession coming into the Village and finally: the entire 2 1/2 hours of the Wall's assemblage fast forwarded down to 3 minutes and set to special music.

A lot of time and love went into the production of this DVD in order to create a movie that can be watched over and over and cherished for generations. If you visited the Wall in Manito and want to remember; if you couldn't attend the event and want to see what you missed; if you are a Veteran or know one or if you just want to own a piece of local history, please don't miss out on this opportunity.

I love photography. I enjoy taking flower pictures, landscapes, my grandson's baseball games and, of course, over the years I've taken plenty of family photos. Photography is more than just hobby though. On a professional level, I took the 150th Manito picture at Memorial Park and several of my photos were in the 150th Manito Book. I also created the souvenir DVD for the Forest City Sesquicentennial and sell my fine art photos at different artist's venues. In addition to photography, I have worked the last 34 years at OSF Medical Center in the Lab.
