(May 28, 2010) Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day (referring to decorating the graves of war dead), is a day to remember all those who have died in service to our country. The federal holiday is observed on the last Monday of May and many communities hold parades and services to honor American veterans.
Check out Recorder Community Newspapers and the blogs here at their websites for details of those observances as well as other happenings in the area.
