Annual Memorial Day event to honor fallen Frisco soldier

Thumbnail
Though its origins began shortly after the Civil War, Memorial Day didn't actually become a federal holiday until 1971. Clearly the designation was overdue, and this Memorial Day will also mark the honoring of an overdue recognition in Frisco.

Following the city's annual Memorial Day celebration in Frisco Commons on Monday, the entry road to the park will be officially designated Cpl. Peter J. Courcy Circle in honor of a fallen Frisco soldier. Courcy was killed by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan on Feb. 10, 2009, and the city has been looking for a way to honor his sacrifice ever since.
