Ranging Reporter update: How important is it to preserve memorials in Victoria?
A darkening sky and morning showers could not stop Crossroads residents from stopping by Japaleno's Cafe Tuesday morning. Ranging Reporter J.R. Ortega asked the question of the day: How important is it to preserve memorials in Victoria?
A: "Very. It's about honoring those who fought for our freedom."
Brenda Garcia, Victoria, Customer Service Representative
A: "It's so our kids can be proud to be American. Also honoring those veterans who fought to protect our country. My grandfather was a World War II veteran."
Manuel Garcia, Victoria, body technician at Mac Haik
A: "It is important. It's a piece of history, and we need to keep it up."
Clay Morris, Victoria production operator
A: "I can see how it's important, but with how the economy is going, we should focus on jobs."
Arlene Saenz, Port Lavaca, nurse
Comments
It is extremely important. But Victoria has never been big on doing that.
