Take some time this holiday to remember those who gave their lives for our country.
Memorial Day was originally called “Decoration Day” and was started after the end of the Civil War. It became an official Federal Holiday in 1971. Memorial Day is for honoring and remembering the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military.

I never understand people who say Happy Memorial Day and think they must not know what it’s about. Thank you for this.

It is unfortunate, like you say. Too bad that so many people just consider this as just another day off from work. Than you for visiting and sharing.

brandib1977,
I completely agree.
This is not a Valentines’ Day, Hallmark Holiday.
