As Memorial Day approaches, I was reminded again that this is the time
where family members wish they were nearby to place flowers on graves,
but can't because of distance, health, or whatever.

When you shop for those memorial flowers and wreaths for your own loved
ones, will you join me in picking up a couple of $1 bunches of flowers
to place on those lonely graves where no flowers are placed?

Do it for the family members who may not be close enough or healthy
enough to do it.. do it for those who have long since gone but used to
care for the graves. Do it, just because you're a family historian, and
care about these who have passed before us.

Do it, because it just feels good! It is a special feeling know that
these who would have been without, can now show that someone cared!
