From Iberia Parish President M. Larry Richard - It was an honor to MC the Iberia Veterans Association Veterans Day Tribute, a heartfelt ceremony where we celebrated and honored all who served. The Iberia Jazz Band filled the air with incredible music, and we experienced a record turnout, demonstrating the deep appreciation and support our community holds for our veterans.

Sharing in this moment of honor and gratitude was a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by our veterans and the strength of our community’s support.
