Memorial Day was observed Monday, May 26, across the Midcoast with ceremonies, speeches, prayers, poems, band performances, parades and wreath laying. "It's up to us to spread the word that Memorial Day is the most solemn holiday on many people's calendar," said David Sulin of the Winslow-Holbrook-Merritt post of the American Legion in Rockland.
