Honors for the Departed in Memorial Day Parade
Memorial Day observances in Estherville featured a long procession led by the Therville military band from the post office to the high school and M B E church. Veterans and youth formed a flowers tossing tribute at Oak Hill and Ratherville cemeteries despite rain, with a Roll of Honor naming comrades buried in East Side and West Side cemeteries. The Liberty Loan drive received praise as citizens and the National Sword Company pledged support, while Editor R. Allison registered for military service as the town’s first inductee.
