It was a solemn but beautiful May day in Menifee’s Wheatfield Park as many families, active, retired and veteran military service members, remembered those who died in war preserving our American freedoms in Memorial Day ceremonies. Strong patriotic and thankful words were spoken by the Menifee Mayor Bill Zimmerman, and council members Lesa Sobek and Bob Karwin to those in the American Armed Forces who gave their lives in that fight for the community and the nation.
“We are a city that is so patriotic,” said Zimmerman to the audience. “We care about our veterans and those who have served and those who are active today still serving our country.” He said Memorial Day is a day of remembering, honor and paying gratitude and appreciation to those who have given that sacrifice of their lives to their country.

Greg Rodler, a U.S. Marine Corps Navy aviator who died in see MENIFEE, page A-2
