Mesquite to host Memorial Day remembrance service

Mesquite, TX - May 2, 2025 - The City of Mesquite will host a Memorial Day service on Monday, May 26, at the Mesquite Veterans Memorial, 425 S. Galloway Ave.

The service will begin promptly at 2:55 p.m. to coincide with the National Moment of Remembrance, an annual observance at 3 p.m. every year on Memorial Day that encourages a moment of silence to honor those who have died in military service.

The program will also include remarks by Mayor Daniel Alemán Jr. and a reading of the names of those from Mesquite who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

The City of Mesquite opened its Veterans Memorial at City Lake Park in 2020. The memorial features a 7-foot-wide column that lists the names of all military veterans from the Mesquite community who lost their lives in service.
