To many, Memorial Day, is just another excuse for a three-day weekend. It’s also known as the day that marks the official start of summer and as a day devoted to getting great deals at the mall. However, the true meaning of Memorial Day goes far beyond barbecues and sales. Memorial Day is a day to honor our Military Servicemen & women that gave their lives protecting our country and its honor. As we remember those that gave their lives we also want to remember and embrace those families struggling around Our Cities, States, Nation and World as remember loved ones lost to war and senseless violence.
