What Does Memorial Day Mean to You?

What is the meaning of Memorial Day?

Everyone loves a three-day weekend and a barbacue, but sometimes the reason we're getting the day off gets lost amid the pool parties and parades.

So, I'm putting the question to you: what does Memorial Day mean to you?

Maybe, to you, it's a time for family to gather, maybe it's a time to remember friends that are gone, maybe it's a time to honor all the soldiers who have served. There are no wrong answers about what it means for you.
