D-Day Remembrance Ceremony at the Veterans Memorial Today
Feasterville Trevose, PA · June 6, 2026
The morning mist is burning off the fields at Playwicki Farm, and it looks like a perfect day for the weekend rush. If you’re heading out early, the air is still crisp enough for a light jacket, but that won't last long once the sun clears the treeline.
📰 The Lead
Today marks the 82nd anniversary of the D-Day landings, and the community is gathering at the Lower Southampton Veterans Memorial to honor those who served. While the larger regional ceremonies often draw the crowds, the local observance remains a poignant, neighborly affair. This year’s gathering is particularly significant as the township recently completed the restoration of several bronze plaques that list the names of residents who served in World War II.
It’s a chance to stand in the shade of the oaks and remember the weight of history that started on a beach thousands of miles away. The ceremony is brief, focused on a wreath-laying and a moment of silence, ensuring the names etched in stone aren't just historical footnotes but remembered neighbors. The honor guard will be present, and local veterans are expected to share a few words before the morning concludes.

- The Neshaminy Creek Watershed
