Irish Walking Stick

The walking stick in our display was carried in the Bay City St. Patrick's Day Parade in 1986. It was brought here from Ireland by Grace Tanner O'Brien, wife of Marcus for their daughter, Mary Ann O'Brien. Mary Ann was Marshall that year and also carried the bouquet gracing the display. The bouquet and stick were decorated by past-parade-Marshall Sharon Protrowski.
