On Monday, May 29, 2023, the community of Elmhurst once again honored the men and women of our nation’s armed services, both past and present.

Some 68 entries made up the parade which concluded with a ceremony at the Veterans Memorial at Wilder Park. Russell Cafario, a United States Army combat veteran of the Vietnam War, was honored as Grand Marshall.

The accompanying photos by Victor Hilitski captured the parade, the ceremony, and the residents who lined the streets and attended the ceremony. On a beautiful morning, all of it was a fitting remembrance. ■
