Sen. Moore Presents New American Flag to Town of Leicester
Tuesday, May 24, 2016
The flag will serve as a replacement for the American flag located on the Town Common which had been stolen earlier this month.
“Given the tragic events that have transpired within the last several days, the presentation of this flag bears special significance to area residents. Even during tough times, the spirit and unity of the community is captured by our Nation’s flag. I am proud to be a part of restoring this important symbol to the Town of Leicester," said Moore.
Moore first learned about the incident when speaking with former Selectman Tom Brennan.
Flags at Half Staff
Governor Charlie Baker has ordered that the United States flag and the Commonwealth flag be lowered to half staff at all state buildings from sunrise on Monday, May 23 until sunset on the day of interment in honor of Auburn Police Officer Ronald Tarentino of Leicester.
