Please take at least a moment on this Memorial Day to remember with thanksgiving all who died in war. They fought to preserve the freedom we enjoy in America today. We dare not forget the price they paid. Attend a memorial service in your area.

The city has agreed to have fireworks for Truman’s 125th celebration in July 2024. The Truman Fire Department will be organizing and collecting funds to put on the display. If you would like to contribute to this, send your check to PO Box 398, and make checks out to Truman Fire Department Relief Association and on the memo line write fireworks. They will also have an account set up at Profinium bank if you prefer to deposit funds there. This change is necessary when writing checks for memorials, donations, contributions and events. There are no changes and how we operate or use the funds given to us. This helps clarify who the check is intended for by going for our full organizational name. Please remember that a donation can also be made as a Memorial. Please indicate if you want your donation to go as a memorial.

Last day of school for Truman students will be noon on Thursday, May 30. Enjoy your summer and be safe.
