Memorial Day: A Time for Reflection and Gratitude Memorial Day, an American federal holiday celebrated annually on the last Monday of May, is a solemn occasion to remember and honor the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the United States Armed Forces. This poignant image captures the essence of this day as a widow and her two children pay their respects at the grave of their beloved husband and father. The scene is set in the early 1900s, and the somber mood is palpable as the family approaches the grave, each carrying a bouquet of fresh flowers. The widow's expression is one of deep sadness and love as she places the flowers on the grave, while her children look on with quiet reverence. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by families and loved ones of the fallen heroes. The words inscribed on the card below the image read, 'Since they kissed the lads they loved so dear, and sent them to the front.' These words encapsulate the bittersweet reality of war and the sacrifices made by families and loved ones.
