Scottish poet Thomas Campbell once wrote, “To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.” As Memorial Day approaches, we remember the fallen. Keep an eye out for memorials to be held Monday — the VFW Post 10221 will host services at the Homer Cemetery, Anchor Point Cemetery and Ninilchik Cemetery at 10 a.m., noon and 2 p.m., respectively.
