Nearly 100 local residents took time out on Monday morning to remember the men and women of the United States Armed Forces who died in defense of the country.
Braidwood American Legion Koca Post 39 hosted the annual Memorial Day Ceremony at the Reed Township Memorial across from City Hall on May 30.
Commander Dale Fraher reminded those in attendance that while Memorial Day weekend is often the kickoff to summer and a three day weekend to celebrate, the somber meaning behind the day should not be forgotten.
