Led by Reverend Dr. Robert Ganung, a small but sincere group of students met by the World War II Memorial in Lincoln Lobby on Monday to remember those who gave their lives for their country, and who served with courage and strength.
Andrea Gura '19 shared a scripture reading and a Memorial Day litany, while Lauren Berray '17 read the traditional Memorial Day poem, In Flanders Field. Other tributes included: Whit Yerkes '18 reading A Soldiers Plight; Rev. Ganung reflecting on the meaning of Memorial Day; Juste Siminauskaite '17 with President Obama's Memorial Day declaration; a musical performance of a Canadian song of remembrance, "Pittance of Time," by Ben Gallant '18; and a Memorial Day responsive reading by Lauren Fadiman '17.
