Southeast Hospice Helps 'Freedom Ring'

Southeast Hospice Volunteer Coordinator Pearla Smith rings bells as part of the "Let Freedom Ring" celebration on Veterans' Day, Nov. 11, at the Missouri Veterans Home in Cape Girardeau. Veterans, local dignitaries, staff at the home, friends, family members and the St. Andrew Lutheran Church bell choir rang bells for two minutes at 11 a.m. in celebration of Veterans' Day. Southeast Hospice helped organize the event. Smith says the event was designed to "let our veterans hear and know that we appreciate their sacrifice and service."
