Sherman statue returns to LaGrange after rededication
LaGrange marks Memorial Day with a three day Founding Celebration culminating in the rededication of the Civil War monument toppled in a crash nearly three years ago. Residents, officials, and veterans gathered on the circle as “Sherman” was reinstalled amid speeches by Mayor Gary Kincannon and Lorain County Veterans Service Commission executive director Jacob Smith. Donald Tolbert, a Vietnam veteran, finally received the Combat Infantryman Badge he was owed, pinned at the statue’s foot during the ceremony.
