Memorial Day events are planned in several area communities on the annual day of remembrance to honor those who died in military service for the United States.
The events this year will be limited due to ongoing concerns about COVID-19. Although restrictions are being lifted on May 29 by Gov. Charlie Baker, organizers said they did not have enough time to schedule larger events since the governor s announcement last week.
