Essex USMC veteran John W. Schumacher greets some of his many well-wishers on Nov. 5. Schumacher and dozens of his fellow vets took part in the first Tri-Town Veterans Day Parade. The brainchild of Deep River’s Jerry LaMark and coordinated by volunteers and officials from all three towns, the parade down Deep River’s Main Street ended with a ceremony at the Columbia monument that featured speakers from all three towns as well as performances from each town’s drum corps.
