Photo Caption:

Neil and Purcell Corbett, lighthouse keeper descendants, placed a wreath at the original U.S. Lighthouse Service Fog Bell from Little River. There was complete silence in the crowd as a recording by the Van Houtens of the song; “Let the Lower Lights Be Burning” was played in the background. The Corbett brothers stood with their heads slightly bowed and hands over their hearts as the beloved old hymn was played. Nick and Belinda Lemieux placed the red, white and blue flowered wreath on the Little River Lighthouse Fog Bell, while the audience sang softly in the background “God Bless the USA.”
