May we never forget the sacrifice made by those who gave their all this Memorial Day 2019. Elders called it Decoration Day as it originated in the years following the Civil War. Memorial Day became an official federal holiday in 1971. Americans spend the day in many ways, by visiting cemeteries or memorials, holding family gatherings and/or participating in parades.
