Today is Flag Day. For those of you who don’t know it, Flag Day has its roots right here in Delaware County.
William T. Kerr is credited with being the man who pushed for a single day to honor Old Glory. He lived most of his life in Yeadon. Kerr was at President Harry Truman’s side when he signed the law officially recognizing Flag Day.
For me it also marks something else. It was exactly 29 years ago today that I reported for my first day of work here in beautiful downtown Primos at the Delaware County Daily Times.
Just about one year later, I married my wife.
Two pretty good decisions. All three of us are still going strong.
