🌱 Fallen Heroes Memorial Unveiled + Good News Roundup

Happy Sunday, Denverites! Let's get this day started. Here's everything happening today in town. I have news about a new memorial for fallen heroes in Denver, a Coloradan who's competing on Wheel of Fortune and a roundup of good news (to ease the pain of daylight saving).

First, today's weather:

You can expect a partly sunny sky, with a high of 76 and a low of 42.

Here are the top stories in Denver today:

1. The Colorado Fallen Heroes Memorial was unveiled in Denver's Lincoln Memorial Park yesterday ahead of Veterans Day on Nov. 11. (9News)
2. Good news happens in Colorado every day, but it can often be overshadowed by the latest pandemic, crime, natural disaster and political news. Here are some recent good news stories from across Denver's metro area. (Patch)
3. Coloradan Gabe Cox, an author, podcaster and mother of three, has been chosen to compete on Wheel of Fortune. She grew up watching the ever-popular game show after her dad introduced it to her, and now he'll get to cheer her on! And so can you, at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 16 on KVDR.
4. If you've been looking to add a fuzzy ball of four-legged love and affection to your life, look no further than these shelters in and around Denver for a pet you can adopt. (Denver Patch)

About me: I'm a Patch editor covering news in Denver's metro area and Boulder. I've spent the past nine years working for various news outlets across North America, including Chicago Patch, Global News and WBEZ. I've covered high-profile court cases, civil rights abuses, mass shootings, natural disasters and major crimes — but also countless happy news stories about kindness, innovation and resilience. When I'm not writing articles, I can be found hiking, snowboarding, debating politics with my husband and attempting to be a sci-fi and astronomy geek.
