Raymond Skladzien was an active member of the Federated Church, as well as the Freemasons, the Rotary Club, and many other community services. To honor his memory, the Federated Church will be dedicating an outdoor sign, provided by generous donations from members of the congregation and the Island community.

The event will be held on Sunday, May 23, at 11:30 a.m., following the 10:30 worship service, at the site of the sign in the church yard, 45 South Summer street in Edgartown.
