The ashes of two veterans have been sitting in containers in Vicksburg for decades, never claimed or given a proper burial.

The men, who died in 1983 and 1999, were cremated, and forgotten for years. Now the two World War II and Korean war veterans are being remembered as heroes, and are finally being given the funerals they deserve.

The Interment ceremony for the two veterans will be at Schoolcraft Township Cemetery at 1:00. this afternoon. The public is encouraged to attend.
