Today, we remember.
Memorial Day isn’t just a long weekend—it’s a day to honor those who lost their lives in service to our country. Whether you're spending time with loved ones, attending a local ceremony, or quietly reflecting, we hope you take a moment to pause and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
From me here at Good Morning, Coulee, thank you to the fallen—and to the families who carry their legacy.
