Hello Melva: The website pictures are beautiful and I was glad to be a part of many of the celebratory activities of the Centennial Anniversary of the Panama Canal. Sorry that I missed the Ecumenical Service but I can see that it was a quite a spectacular event. I see my favorite minister participated from the Nazarene church. I truly enjoyed the kick off service at the National Baptist Church where I attended with my grandson and our attendance is documented with the pictures. Congratulations and keep up the good work of keeping the history and contributions of our forefathers to the creation of the Panama Canal Alive.
