The Modetz Funeral Home on Silverbell Road in Orion Township is presenting to the public the mural recently created for the home by Rochester artist Gerry Post.

Post spent over six months researching, drawing and painting the creation. All of the weaponry and uniforms depicted are authentic, and Post even included portraits of owners John and Mary Modetz? fathers.
