Sisson will present images and history from these sacred places. Sisson, originally from Milton, WI taught High School history mostly in overseas military schools. He spent 31 years living in Heidelberg, Germany. While living in Europe he was able to spend time visiting the cemeteries there and was able to locate Milton residents who were buried in them.
