You are invited to an event honoring veterans, focusing on Richmond and World War I. Presented by local historian Kitty Snow, the program will use the photographs and stories of her great-grandfather, Harris H. Stilson (1868-1934). Stilson was a Richmond streetcar motorman and amateur photographer who amassed a large collection of rare images of Richmond. The presentation takes place the week before Veterans’ Day and is based on Kitty’s book “From Richmond to France,” which includes the story of her great-uncle, a native of Richmond, who served in France during the war and died in battle. The program is free and open to the public. It will take place Sunday, Nov. 2, at 2 PM at Mt Hermon Baptist Church, 18100 Genito Road. For more information or questions, call or text Kitty at (804) 615-1125.
