Members of the Illinois Senate Republican Caucus gathered at the Illinois State Capitol on Thursday to unveil the 2025 Memorial Day Wall of Remembrance, a tribute to the brave men and women from Illinois who gave their lives in service to their nation.

Located in the South Hall of the Capitol Rotunda, the digital Wall of Remembrance features a continuously looping display of photos and stories of fallen service members from across Illinois. It will remain on display for public viewing through Friday, June 6.

Since 2015, the Senate Republican Caucus has proudly hosted the Memorial Day Wall of Remembrance to ensure that the stories of Illinois’ fallen heroes are honored and remembered. The display is open to the public during normal Capitol hours, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and Saturday through Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

The public is also invited to leave a personal message of thanks at the Wall of Remembrance inside the Capitol. Together, these gestures ensure that Illinois’ fallen heroes are remembered with the dignity and gratitude they deserve.
