We Remember Our Fallen Heroes We would like to take a moment to express our thanks for those that made the ultimate sacrifice, for those that currently serve in our military, our appreciation of their supporting family members and gratitude for the work of committed nonprofits doing work supporting our servicemen and service women. Memorial Day is more than a long weekend with friends, family & barbecues. Our history for this important day can sometimes be forgotten as we celebrate the “unofficial” beginning of summer. Details often forgotten or unknown seem particularly important today as our nation has felt divisions in significant ways over the past few years. In 1966 the federal government declared Waterloo, New York, the official birthplace of Memorial Day and became an official federal holiday in 1971. Earlier history is that on May 5, 1868, General John A. Logan, leader of an organization for Northern Civil War veterans, called for a nationwide day of remembrance later that month. “The 30th of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with flowers, or otherwise decorating the graves of comrades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village and hamlet churchyard in the land,” he proclaimed. The date of Decoration Day, as he called it, was chosen because it wasn’t the anniversary of any particular battle. On the first Decoration Day, General James Garfield made a speech at Arlington National Cemetery, and 5,000 participants decorated the graves of the 20,000 Civil War soldiers buried there. Memorial Day, as Decoration Day gradually came to be known, originally honored only those lost while fighting in the Civil War. But during World War I the holiday evolved to commemorate American military personnel who died in all wars, including World War II, The Vietnam War, The Korean War and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. We wish you a Happy Yet Solemn Memorial Day Holiday. Never forget. ...
