MY EDMONDS NEWS Posted: July 18, 2021 Edmonds Memorial Cemetery After pausing last year’s annual event due to COVID-19, the Edmonds Memorial Cemetery Board is resuming the free Walk Back in Time event on Thursday, July 22 at 1 p.m. This public event will take a look at how the pandemic of 1918 impacted the small community of Edmonds, as told through the lives of five residents buried in the historic cemetery: a mill worker, a newlywed, a farmer, a mother of six, and a Freemason. Guests can find out more about how the backdrop of WWI set the stage for this tragic event, which caused the loss of at least 50 million people across the globe, and how the residents of Edmonds responded. While our communities are returning to normal, we once again come together to take note of our local history with eyes toward the future.
