Memorial Day |

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service.
 Memorial Day was officially proclaimed on 5 May 1868 by General John Logan.
In 1915, inspired by the poem "In Flanders Fields," Moina Michael replied with her own poem:
"We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies."
