If you have the opportunity, stop by. This exhibit is very close to my heart. One of the displays is devoted to my grandfather's brothers. Out of the nine Kelley siblings, seven served in WWII. My grandfather was not able to serve due to his age and family situation, but his family was well represented.
This is a pic that my Uncle Tim painted of himself and three of his brothers, Jim, John & George from their service photographs.
