On Thursday, the Marquette Regional History Center put on a cemetery tour at Holy Cross Cemetery in Marquette, with the theme “WWII Memories.” In the foreground of this image is the grave of Donald Lee O’Neill, who was injured during the fighting on D-Day. In the background, Cemetery Tour participants stop at the grave of Wilma Verna Giroux Challier, who served at the Romulus Army Air Field as a finance and supply clerk during the war and who was the first woman to join the American Legion Marquette Post 44.
