The Memorial Day Parade winds it's way around downtown Auburn.
After visiting other cemeteries where his wife and other relatives are buried, Navy veteran David Jumper, of Lewiston, Maine went to Riverside Cemetery in Lewiston Saturday afternoon May 26, 2019 to look at his uncle's headstone to research how he, also a veteran, died in Cuba. He didn't think he died while on active duty but has always wanted to find out and decided to start this Memorial Day weekend. The uncle was one of hundreds of Americans who moved to Cuba before Castro and the revolution took hold.
Kathleen Schmitt inserts a piece of tile into one of the seams of the nearly completed mosaic art pieces that adorn the facade of the new Hartley Block on Lisbon Street in Lewiston. This piece is called Smelt Brook Falls, in Georgetown, Maine that was based on a painting by renouned artist Marsden Hartley and created by New York artists Stephen Miotto and Nancy Blum. Miotto, background, is being assisted by Kathleen Schmitt with the installation.
