At the top of our second hour, Todd takes a moment to celebrate the memory of Bill Walton and Grayson Murray, two athletes who passed away over the weekend. 

As yesterday was Memorial Day, Todd reminds us to pay our respects to those who died serving our country. Here in Madison, many often forget that the UW Madison Memorial Union is indeed a memorial. In that building, there is an interactive exhibit featuring stories of UW alumni who passed away while serving. These stories go back all the way to the civil war, and you can read them on uwgoldstarhonorroll.org. 

Afterwards, Jeremy Lyon, Administrator of the Division of Veterans Benefits, joins us to talk about the impact of Memorial Day.
