The VFW Program planned for Monday, May 26, in Geneseo City Park will begin at 9:30 a.m. with music by members of the Geneseo Middle School Band. Speakers are scheduled at 10 a.m.
Dr. Cynthia (Borkgren) Abraham, formerly of Geneseo, who now lives in Wisconsin, and is a practicing veterinarian, will be the featured speaker. She served in the U.S. Army, as a Lieutenant Colonel, retiring in 2024.
Steve Laleman also will provide updated information about the Geneseo Aisle of
Flags.
There will be a “by donation” pork chop lunch served after the ceremony and veterans will eat at no charge. In the event of inclement weather, the program will be held in the Geneseo High School Performing Ars Center.
The annual Memorial Day ceremony is sponsored by the Don Cherry VFW, VFW Auxiliary, and the Aisle of Flags.
