BEAVER--
Local residents passed yet another Memorial Day in their typical fashion-- attending the holiday parade and festivities.
The parade was held on Third Street, where hundreds of people lined the sidewalks all wearing red, white and blue. The parade itself lasted about 15 minutes and included the local JROTC crew, veteran chapters, and youth baseball and softball teams.
After the march had ended, the crowd made its way to the cemetery for the memorial service, where speakers, clergy, and choral members respectfully paid tribute to the country's fallen.
Everyone enjoyed the day's blue sky, abundant sunshine and balmy temperatures-- perfect weather for cookouts and picnics.
