HONORING THE FALLEN

Chicago will honor the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in defense of our country with the annual Memorial Day Parade, stepping off at noon May 26 on State Street at Lake Street ( and marching south to Van Buren). Ahead of the parade festivities, the annual Wreath Laying Ceremony at Daley Plaza will take place at 11 a. m. The ceremony “honors fallen heroes and Gold Star family members who have lost a loved one in the United States Armed Forces to combat operations or while on active duty.” For more information, visit cityofchicago. org
