HONOR FIREMAN AND FIRST RESPONDERS – Roscommon hosted the Annual Fireman’s Memorial and the accompanying festival the weekend of Sept. 20-21. The event featured a silent light parade on Friday night to honor fallen firefighters, and the annual community parade on Saturday. Dozens of vendors, firefighters and their families turned out for the event which wrapped up Sunday morning with a pancake breakfast at the Higgins Township Fire Department.
