A Day Of Remembrance

While the 3-day Memorial Day holiday weekend is associated with the kickoff of summertime and days at the beach, the significance of the holiday is far more solemn. It’s a day to remember and honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Throughout the country, ceremonies will be held for those who died while serving in the United States military.
