Letter: Memorial Day is for Veterans who lost their lives By Gene Jessee I don't know if I am the only person who thinks like this or not. But it seems like to me that we are getting our holidays mixed up. Memorial Day is a holiday for remembering our Vets who gave their lives in service to our country and Veterans Day is for honoring our living veterans. I have great respect for both but I think we should remember the dead only on Memorial Day and our Veterans on November 11 and should keep those men and women who are now serving in our thoughts and prayers daily. Respectfully -Gene Jessee Thanks, Gene Jessee for making this point. You're actually the second person to send a note to this effect. Another writer commented that Rep. Ed's Memorial Day comments would lead one to think he didn't understand the purpose of Memorial Day. A good point, though in this case the Congressman's heart was in the right place, and I felt that to be most important. It would be good to hear other courteous and respectful comments on the subject. Holidays do seem to evolve and devolve. - Ed Waggener This story was posted on 2012-05-29 04:24:22
