Many area Memorial Day observance activities were officially cancelled or modified on Monday. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Governor Wolf's stay at home orders any potential large gathering was cancelled for more controlled programs. Meadville asked residents not to attend the service in Diamond Park. They arranged for it to be live streamed so people could watch it safely social distanced from their homes. It appears many heeded the city's advice. A couple dozen people attended the ceremony along with the VFW and Veterans of the Vietnam War honor guards and Memorial Day committee. The park did look vastly different than in years past when the ceremony followed the downtown parade that ended at the Diamond.
