Chicago to recognize Gold Star families during Memorial Day Parade

CHICAGO (FOX 32 NEWS) - Memorial Day is about more than just burgers and beer.

The true meaning, of course, is remembering those men and women who have sacrificed their lives for the freedoms we enjoy today.

Chicago will be recognizing our armed forces Saturday with a wreath-laying ceremony and parade.

Jim Frazier with Illinois Gold Star Families joins Good Day Chicago to talk about a special group that will be honored in the Memorial Day Parade this weekend.
