The graves of approximately 625 veterans were decorated by family members and other volunteers at the Albany Cemetery last Saturday, during the annual Wreaths Across America Day program.

More than 50 volunteers and several family members of veterans fanned out across the cemetery to place fresh green wreaths with red bows on the graves of all identified veterans.

The Albany Nativity was presented to the community last weekend, during two performances at the Aztec Theater to an estimated audience of 450.

“Both shows were so good, and the audience raved about it as they left the theater,” director Lorna Ayers said. “I was impressed with all the actors and crew. The passion that the cast has for this production was very evident, and audience members said it was the best they had seen in years.”
