Although Memorial Day activities have been canceled in Barnegat Township due to the pandemic, one of the event coordinators invites people to take part in a national moment of silence at 3 p.m. on May 25.

“We ask that whatever people are doing, to take a one-minute pause at 3 p.m.  to remember those who have died in military service to the United States,” said Gene O’Grady, past commander of John Wesley Taylor American Legion Post.
