Colonels Giving Forward In the Community
On October 23, 2025 Colonels Mark Raney and Walt Busch clean grave sites. At Calvary Cemetery, St. Louis, MO, they cleaned the tombstones of Civil War General Pitcairn Morrison and the General William T. Sherman Family. General Morrison's Grave still needs lots of work. But the chemical needs time to work so they are looking at spring for their next attempts.

participating in the
Spring Clean Up of the Concordia Cemetery held Thursday, March 6, 2025
Concordia Cemetery, Bate & Leona Sts, St Louis.
On a crisp March 6 morning, three Kentucky Colonels, Col Gale Bennington, Col Lee Mueller and Col. Sumner Hunnewell, from the Missouri Chapter helped for a few hours to help clean up the historic Concordia Cemetery in St. Louis. Most of the work included removing fallen limbs and branches from many of the trees in the cemetery. The cemetery is best known as having the tomb and monument to C. F. W. Walther, the first president of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod as well as president of its first seminary, who was also the great-great grandfather of Missouri Chapter Colonel Sandra Walther.
