Local quilters honor WWII vets
DeKALB – “It’s a privilege and an honor.”
That’s how Ralph Karau felt about receiving the handmade quilt that was on the table next to him.
Karau was among the 27 veterans residing at the DeKalb County Rehab & Nursing Center who received a quilt from the DeKalb County Quilters’ Guild during a special ceremony Friday morning. Friday was the 71st anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Karau was one of four brothers who served in World War II, including one who was killed.
