Please join me in honoring those who have gone
before us. Our veterans who gave their most
precious posession, the breath of life.
Memorial day is also a day of rememberance for
our ancestors, family, friends, and hero's
to be honored and remembered. We decorate
their graves in recognition of their existence
and in memory of the love we shared with them.
"Soldier, rest, thy warfare o'er,
Dream of fighting fields no more.
Sleep the sleep that knows not breaking,
Morn of toil, nor night of waking."

Memorial day was officially declared by General
John A. Logan of the Grand Army of the Republic
who designated May 30, 1868,
" as a day for strewing with flowers or
otherwise decorating the graves of comrades
who died in defense of their country, and whose
bodies now lie in almost every city, village,
or hamlet churchyard in the land...It is the
purpose of the commander-in-chief to
inaugurate this observance with the hope that
it will be kept from year to year while a
survivor of the war remains to honor the
memory of the departed."
