Andre Hissink looks at his banner for the first time
It was a moment of remembrance Wednesday morning when WWII veteran Andre Hissink looked upon his Honour Our Veterans banner proudly.
This was the second time Lake 88’s caught up with him, the first being at the 104-year-olds birthday in June.
It was on that day Hissink learned this banner would be going up through Sue Doran and the Perth Legion.
Doran was in attendance alongside Perth Legion President Ivan Cole, and Town of Perth councillor Gary Waterfield.
Hissink was very touched by the gesture.
Doran says this year there are 341 banners up as part of the program.
Hissink’s hangs proudly at the Tim Hortons on Highway 7.
