Nebraska’s Memorial Day Observance
May 25, 2020 @ 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM
As our state continues adhering to social distancing guidelines and limiting in-person gatherings to flatten the curve of COVID-19, we invite you to join us on Memorial Day by tuning in online. Join us virtually on Monday, May 25th, for Nebraska’s largest Memorial Day observance with the fewest people present in the room.
During our Memorial Day Observance live stream, a candle will be lit by Gold Star Mother Monica Alexander at 8:00 a.m. and remain lit until 8:00 p.m. when it is extinguished by Gold Star Father Mel Alexander. Their son, Army Corporal Matthew Alexander of Gretna, was killed May 6, 2007, when an improvised explosive device detonated near his vehicle in Baqubah Iraq. He can be found on our Nebraska’s Fallen memorial page.
