Centralia

The sound of a Kylee Motley singing the “Star Spangled Banner,” followed by the heart-rending sound of Brenda Kehl playing “Taps,” on her trumpet echoed around the intersection of Rodney Griffin Boulevard and West Singleton the afternoon of Friday, September 19 on Centralia’s west side. A few more than a dozen people gathered at the intersection for one of Centralia’s longer-running, but less well-known traditions.
