It’s Memorial Day! Traditionally, this is a day to honor fallen soldiers, those who died in service to their country. Over time, this holiday has expanded to include honoring the memory of loved ones who are no longer with us. I remember when I was a child going with my Mom to put flowers on [...]

I am spending time with family today. No matter how far away they are or how different we are as individuals, family is the word we use to talk about those people in our lives who will always be a part of us. Whether our families are the people we are related to, or the [...]
