Dear Billy T and Somerville/Medford News Weekly Speakup Line,

Of course, we are all delighted the Memorial Parade has been reinstated for The City.

It should never have been cancelled! As a former member of the city council, I wonder if this “mayor” actually voted to cancel the parade?
Meanwhile, this “mayor” is now patting herself on the back for reinstating the parade…a bit DISINGENUOUS? If she really wants to give herself a pat on the back, maybe she should follow up on Billy Tauro’s Investigation – – WHERE are ALL the rest of the Memorial Monuments? The Memorial Parade is one beautiful memorable day, for sure…but WE THE PEOPLE implore this “mayor” to make a SINCERE gesture to OUR CITY, and put these Monuments back in place BEFORE the Parade! YES, indeed, BEFORE the Parade! We expect our Veterans to be acknowledged and respected on a daily basis. We expect sincere
RESPECT!
