Memorial Day 1990 Remembered Across Lorain County
Memorial Day 1990 observances span 27 parades in Lorain County and nearby Cuyahoga with a 77 unit Elyria march. Lorain Memorial Association plans to mark over 5,200 veteran gravestones in three Lorain cemeteries and asks next of kin to notify caretakers. The piece notes USS Arizona mast saved by a local veteran will have a permanent home at the Arizona state capitol and Lorain County as a finalist for a 300 acre national veterans cemetery. It reflects on the meaning of Memorial Day amid war casualties and a shifting public focus toward a long weekend. It cites 2.5 million war deaths across nine wars and mentions 23 killed in Panama and eight in the Philippines this year, linking all to a long historical chain of sacrifice from Bunker Hill to Antietam.
