Description:
Members of Floriano-Stecker American Legion Post No. 340 in Hermansville took time to be photographed prior to Memorial Day Services in 1954. The Legionnaires were headed for Riverside Cemetery in Faithorn and Meyer Township Cemetery in Hermansville and still conduct services at those cemeteries. The photo was taken at the Hermansville Community Club, location of the Legion Post at that time. Kneeling in the front row, left to right, are Walter Beilmore, Reno Fochesato, Lester Johnson, George Maule, Clifford Gustafson, Ernest Dani, Milton Laurin and Frank Rodman; standing are Edward Faccio, Anthony Ayotte, Frank Urick, Omar Normand, Leo T. Doran and Jack Kleimola. Kleimola was that year's main speaker at both cemeteries.
