The Third Grade at Matthew's school does a "Cemetery Walk" each year about distinguished people from Illinois. The kids line up in the small gymnasium and as you stand in front of them . . . they give a little speech about who they are. Matthew chose Ward Hill Lamon . . . one of Abraham Lincoln's bodyguards.
Matthew and David did a great job! The shape of the tombstone is a medal.
Here's Matthew in costume . . . I'm sure they didn't have these kind of sunglasses back then, but he said a bodyguard always wears sunglasses:
Here's Matthew and some of his classmates at the actual walk:
