Norfolk County Sheriff’s Office will host the second “Flags of our Families” tribute to fallen heroes with a flag installation ceremony in Braintree. Fifty full-size American flags will be installed and displayed on the lawn of the Braintree Public Safety Complex, and a ceremony will be held to honor the memory of those who have passed and to recognize their sacrifices.
The public is invited to participate in a short ceremony to honor the fallen heroes at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 27th, on the lawn of the Braintree Public Safety Complex. Taps will be played followed by an address by Sheriff McDermott. The installation of the flags is being done in partnership with the Braintree Veterans Services department, which is providing the flags.

I completely agree. Washington St. also has some terrible patches, especially the handicap ramps. I don’t understand why the DPW is responsible for clearing sidewalks in front of homes and businesses. It seems that those should be the responsibility of the property owner.
The sidewalks on High Rock and Hartford have been pretty treacherous this winter too. I didn't contact DPW about it though.
Cloudy , with a high of 41 and low of 26 degrees. Overcast during the morning, sunny in the afternoon, partly cloudy during the evening, overcast overnight.
A true hero, though I'm not sure about the naming of the intersection after him. We already have a school named after him. Is there no one else who dedicated their life to this Town that the intersection could be named in memory of?
Thanks for the comment. Perhaps other candidates for a named intersection might be considered by the Select Board if presented with a petition or similar process as what was used here.
