The Isle of Valor was constructed in 2007 to honor Menasha's two Medal of Honor recipients, Kenneth Stumpf and the late Elmer J. Burr, and the other Menasha residents who exhibited bravery or valor in military or civilian circumstances. The centerpiece of the isle is this 10-foot monument flanked by plaques detailing the brave deeds of Stumpf and Burr.
During this long, recreational weekend, please take a moment to pause and reflect on what the few have given, so the many of us can enjoy our freedoms.
I'll be back on Tuesday.
