For many, Memorial Day is considered the first day of summer a time to celebrate with family gatherings, shopping, cookouts, and vacations. It is however a solemn day.
Memorial Day was established as a United States federal holiday to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice and died while serving in the military. "The National Moment of Remembrance" ask all citizens to have one minute of silence at 3 PM local time in tribute. Taps Across America will be played for the third year at that time.
This day is also a day I have chosen to acknowledge and remember all non-military family members who have died. I would like to recognize family members who have died from all causes from Memorial Day 2021 to the present. We remember the smiling faces, life lessons learned, and celebrate their lives.
