COMMUNITY INVITED TO SUPPORT SOLDIER

A soldier who recently passed away while serving in the US Army at Fort Bliss, Texas will be returning home tonight. Following a US Army Dignified Transfer Ceremony at the Indianapolis International Airport late Monday afternoon, Staff Sergeant Andrew Budd will be escorted by the Indiana State Police, Pulaski County Sheriff's Office, the Indiana Patriot Guard, and his family back to Winamac. The procession route from the airport will be I-465, US 31 North, and US 35 North to Frain Mortuary in Winamac, with an estimated time of arrival around 7:30 Monday. Members of the community are welcome to show their thanks and gratitude for his service and dedication along the route. Frain Mortuary will be posting updates regarding the arrival time on Facebook after the procession leaves the Indianapolis Airport.
