Grand Rapids MI – Most communities observe Memorial Day on the last Monday of May, while Grand Rapids recognizes the traditional day of May 30th with its parade. This year’s event started at 7 p.m. on Division and Lyon NE, ending at Veterans Park in downtown Grand Rapids.  A service was held in remembrance of those who died while serving our country’s armed forces.
