Marysville teen honors veterans with Eagle Scout prayer garden

ST. CLAIR, MI — Kyle McCormick never had the chance to meet his grandfather, Joseph H. McCormick, a U.S. Air Force sergeant who served during the Vietnam War. But his grandfather's grave at St. Mary Cemetery , 3039 Rattle Run Road, would eventually inspire the 17-year-old Marysville resident to create something honoring not only his family, but generations of veterans. What began as a visit to the cemetery with his father grew into an Eagle Scout project that included cleaning dozens of veterans' grave markers and constructing a permanent Veterans Prayer Garden. As Veterans Day approaches Nov. 11, the completed garden offers visitors a quiet place to remember those who served. "This is me leaving my mark on the community," McCormick said. "Something I can show my kids in the future." A personal connection to military service McCormick, a member of Marysville's Scout Troop 216 , said the idea began when he noticed the condition of veterans' grave markers during visits to cemeteries. His troop had previously participated in activities honoring veterans, including placing flags at gravesites and taking part in Wreaths Across America. But seeing his own grandfather's marker in need of attention made the issue personal. "When I
