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

Michigan city explores idea of passenger rail service to Detroit, beyond

A future passenger rail line connecting Sterling Heights , Warren and other communities in Macomb County to downtown Detroit , the airport and other rail lines, including one to Chicago, is being explored along a freight rail corridor that is currently, and primarily, tied to the auto industry. While some might think the idea is "really far-fetched," Sterling Heights City Manager Mark Vanderpool says it's not. And several Sterling Heights City Council members support taking a closer look at the idea. "Could that ever happen in Sterling Heights? And the answer is absolutely," Vanderpool told City Council during its Nov. 4 meeting, where it heard a presentation on the topic. "We have the backbone right here in our city." The backbone is the Conrail corridor that runs from Detroit through Warren and Sterling Heights. Sterling Heights says railroad tracks farther north, around 22 Mile Road, have been removed. City officials would like to find a way to preserve existing tracks, while they still are being used, for the future. A possible north-south passenger rail line with limited stops may be a way to do that. "Ultimately, the point is simple. If we preserve the corridor, we are protecting an opportunity
