CanalSt5Depot

Shown in this photo are four committee members (l-r): Starlet Levy, Karen Sanders, Lori Manon and Sandra Wann along with Sara Keeran, village administrator.

There are four new street signs with five gold stars on Antwerp’s Canal Street. These stars represent the five men who died during WWII within eleven months. They all lived on this street that is only about a mile long in the village.

The VETS – Continuous Honor committee, after publishing a book about Antwerp Veterans, After 200 Years, Why Freedom Still Rings in Antwerp, Ohio, commissioned West Bend Publishing to make a poster to honor these men. That poster shows the Canal Street Five, heroic men; Sgt. Arthur Muir, Sgt. Dorcy Waters, PFC Forest Ours, Seaman 2nd Class Glenn G. Sudlow and Cpt. Max I. Seslar and was presented to the village and is displayed at The Antwerp Depot.
