If I recall correctly, Memorial Day's original purpose was to honor those who fell in battle for America, a purpose which has since been usurped by Veteran's Day. Today, Memorial Day can be a day to honor/remember both fallen soldiers AND family and friends who have gone on ahead of us. I know that I'll be heading to the cemetary sometime today to honor my mother's memory, for she truly was a person worthy of honor and respect, and I miss her dearly. I always will.
Take care.
