Most holidays may have begun for various purposes but most become weekends of shopping bargains. Let's not allow Memorial Day to fade away from the noble purpose of recognizing those who gave their lives for their country.
We observe Veterans Day when all veterans are recognized, but it is not the same. Let me once again tell of one observance in Homer. After the conclusion of a short speech and music several World War widows and other family members approached me and asked that we never stop the service. I don't know if the service was continued after I left Homer, but every Memorial Day I remember that service.
