Memorial Day Flowers






Donald, my husband and I put flowers on the graves this year for Mom's family and the Threadgold's and the Williams. We forgot our camera so we used a cell phone to take these photos. Not the best quality but you can at least see the headstones.

Memorial Day

today's holiday reminded us of what the holiday used to be befor pooliticians and retailers pushed for the holiday to be on a Monday giving people more time to relax and spend money. This day used to be called decoration day and was always celebrated on the 30 th of May.Not only were veteran's graves decorated all other family members had flowers put on their graves and there was always a memorial service at the cemetary. As Doris and Bob lived on the farm inFedora they took care pf putting floweres on the Threadgold and Williams grave sites. Families in those days were not as scattered as they are today. Probably today those sites are not decorated. We hope your holiday was special and that you remebered your parents and grandparents and veterans in your families. Phyllis & Jim
