Memorial Day Beyond the Break

This Memorial Day, veteran Andre Huneault urges us to pause beyond the weekend vibes and truly honor those who sacrificed—and those still struggling to heal after service. With roots in military history, he calls attention to the silent pain of families lost to suicide, spotlighting Bedford’s poignant “Honoring the Fallen” event. Across Roanoke Valley, ceremonies from Dublin’s veterans cemetery to Freedom Plaza and beyond invite reflection, silence, and flag-folding. Honor the fallen by attending, observing a moment of silence at 3 PM, or flying your flag at half-staff—because Memorial Day isn’t just a break, it’s a reckoning with gratitude and grief.
