More than 35 people were bused from Butler County to Washington, D.C., Friday to participate in the 50th anniversary of the March for Life, among thousands of other people there for the same reason.

The March for Life, promotes “the beauty and dignity of every human life by working to end abortion,” a mission that longtime attendee Ray Ferguson said is among several goals shared by marchers.

“It's also other life issues — protecting the elderly. Protect people from conception to their natural death,” said Ferguson, bus captain for All Saints Parish and resident of Butler Township. “We oppose euthanasia, as well.”
