A U.S. Marine and Korean War veteran, Lee Walker, is honored with a restored flagpole on Cathedral Hill in St. Paul — a tribute spearheaded by his sons, Todd and Chris. After Lee’s passing at 93, his sons refurbished a decades-neglected, leaning pole at the University Club, straightening it and raising a new flag in his honor. The dedication ceremony, held August 18th, featured music and “Taps” as the flag unfurled — a poignant moment for Todd, who discovered his father’s legacy anew during a trip to Seoul, where Koreans revered his service like that of a hero. Known for his quiet grace, Lee preferred the background, but now his legacy stands tall — literally — as a symbol of sacrifice and family devotion.
