Four-year-old Madelyn Roesch holds her hands over her ears as she sits along Washington Street with brothers Brayden, 7, center, and Chandler, 9, during Monday’s Memorial Day parade. The parade was among a number of holiday activities in the city, including a wreath-laying ceremony at the Vicksburg National Cemetery. The Roesches are the children of Donald and Ashley Roesch.
