“A serviceman dies twice. When his breath goes away and he dies once. The second time he dies is if people forget him,” said Reuben Waller, guest speaker at the annual Veterans Day luncheon at Christ Church Parish on Friday, Nov. 10.

The Veterans Day luncheon, sponsored by the Christ Church Parish Fellowship Committee, was packed with Middlesex County veterans who served their country in the military.

ROTC members presented the colors and Mark Parsons, dean of faculty and chairman of Visual and Performing Arts at Christchurch School, led the group in singing patriotic songs.
