From North to South and East to West, Memorial Day ceremonies were held throughout Kosciusko County today as hundreds paid tribute to the men and women who fought and died for our freedom.

Parades were held in Leesburg, Milford, North Webster, Pierceton and Syracuse and veterans organizations from every community held memorial services at area cemeteries in honor of all service men and women who gave some, and those who gave all to keep America home of the free.

The ceremonial firings of the 21 guns salute was held at all Memorial Day ceremonies, as was the playing of Taps to honor fallen soldiers and the laying of the wreaths, all help in memory of those who served.
