City workers, business owners, veterans and volunteers begin picking up memorial stones, benches and other items Friday that were damaged by Monday’s flooding at Veterans Memorial Park in Lewiston. L&A Veterans Council Chairman Jerry DeWitt believes most, if not all, of the items have been located. Some are damaged or broken, while others were set back in place. “This is catastrophic but we have a lot of people stepping up to help pick up the pieces and rebuild.” DeWitt said.
