My memories of Memorial Day (originally called Decoration Day), and why it's important to honor those we've lost by decorating graves with flowers and flags
I do this, too, decorate my son's grave. Whenever we can get to our parents' graves, 1000 miles away for my husband and me now, we clean and decorate them, whether it's Memorial Day or not. It always feels important, just as you said. Thank you for posting this.
What. Beautiful tribute to your family. Very touching. My mom loved carnations and had a tulip garden. Funny tulips are my second favorite flower. How touching Patti visited your families graves. Happy Memorial Day. Thanks for honoring your family
What a beautiful thing.
