The tradition of Memorial Day began with families gathering at cemeteries to honor their loved ones, particularly those who served in America's wars. In Illinois, many flags will be flown at half-staff on Memorial Day as a tribute to these sacrifices.
House Minority Leader Tony McCombie has expressed his respect for the occasion and is urging residents of Illinois to reflect on the significance of the day.
“This Memorial Day, we pause to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country,” said McCombie. “Freedom isn’t free — and today we say thank you to those who paid its highest price. Let’s live in a way that honors their legacy.”
