Monday, Memorial Day 2023

On this Monday, Memorial Day 2023, we honor those brave men and women in the military who died serving their country.

If you’re unable to attend a ceremony in your hometown, did you know there’s something else you can do right in your own home to honor these heroes?

At 3 p.m., you can observe one minute of silence to recognize those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for the many freedoms we’ve had for so long.

This is the official time designated for the “National Moment of Remembrance.” 

Some other ideas: If you’re in your car driving, you can turn on your headlights at that time or you can listen to the playing of “Taps.”

I am so thankful for an organization like Taps Across America which organizes participants across the country to sound the call.

Here’s a look at what took place last year.

What a blessing to be located near enough to hear one of these tributes.
