Mary Leavitt, a member of the Grace Brethren Church of Columbus, Ohio (David Plaster, pastor), who is known throughout Central Ohio as “The Flag Lady,” will be honored tomorrow (Tuesday, October 28) by the Republican National Party. Their tour bus, with a “special guest” aboard, will hold a brief rally at her Clintonville store (Flag Lady’s Flag Store, 4567 N. High Street) at 10:15 a.m., and then take Mary on board for a trip to Cincinnati where she will represent small business owners.
At the Republican National Convention, Mary led the Pledge of Allegiance one evening in front of millions. (See August 29 blog post.)
Anyone who can attend the rally at the Flag Lady’s Flag store tomorrow is welcome.
By the way, the Columbus church is hosting their annual Legacy of Honor program for veterans on November 1. The festivities begin at 6 p.m. with displays of military memorabilia followed by a mini-concert, program, and ice cream social!
