Photo of the Day: Happy Memorial Day

Wilmette-Kenilworth Patch wanted to share one of our favorite photos from today's parade.

More than just a day off from work, today's holiday commemorates those who lost their lives serving our country. First celebrated in 1868, the day was known as Decoration Day.

If you're looking for a way to observe Memorial Day, check out the list created by the National WWII Museum in New Orleans.
