The Carnegie-Stout Public Library and the Northeastern Iowa chapter of the Quilts of Valor® (QOV) Foundation invite the public to a ceremony honoring local veterans on Sunday, Nov. 6, at 2 p.m. The ceremony will award nominated veterans touched by war with comforting and healing quilts.

NE Iowa QOV Coordinator Cyndy Billmeyer said:

“This year, we have reached a milestone of honoring 1,000 veterans with a healing quilt,”.  “It will be our pleasure to honor and award Command Sergeant Major Lloyd L. Smith with our 1,000th Quilt of Valor at the Nov. 6 ceremony.”

 The public may also view a collection of quilts made by the Northeastern Iowa chapter of the Quilts of Valor® Foundation in the third-floor rotunda from Oct. 25-Nov. 3 during regular library hours.
