Funeral of Sgt. Carson Holmquist

Memorial Day marks the unofficial start to the summer season. Originally it was a day of remembrance for soldiers killed in the Civil War. That honor has been extended to all who have died in our nation's military service. With that in mind, let's come up with a set of songs for this morning's Question of the Day. We'll spin that set after 9am.

Here's what we played:

Cowboy Junkies "Decoration Day"

Iris DeMent "There's a Wall in Washington"

Patty Griffin "Making Pies"

Johnny Cash "Drive On"

Graham Parker "Short Memories"
