My personal highlights from this bell’s journey:
- The soft heart of Jeannene Shanks for the bell, saving it from a fate as a dumbbell
- Reviving the tradition of ringing for the Fourth of July, one garage at a time!
- The enterprising research of the Shank family to find the bell’s origins
- Bells symbolize our shared history and country!
- The bell finds a good home, on display for the community to view and admire
