Over 120 people took part in today’s (Wednesday’s) 16th Annual Memorial March to Honor Lost Children.
The march focuses on healing and wellness within Sioux City’s Native American community and the memory of children taken from their homes and placed into social services.
Frank LaMere spoke at each stop along the 4th Street route:
