MEMA said in a Facebook post that it remembers the men and women who sacrificed their lives for our freedom.
MEMA is an emergency management agency that coordinates preparedness, response and recovery efforts for disasters and emergencies in its jurisdiction. Agencies with this mission typically work with local, state and federal partners to plan for storms, floods, public-health incidents and other crises.
The agency’s public remembrance underscores the broader practice of honoring service members and first responders whose sacrifices affect communities across the country. Observances and statements from public agencies aim to recognize loss, promote public awareness and reinforce community resilience.
Details about any specific ceremonies or events were not included in the post. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
