Memorial Day
Years ago we didn't use artificial flowers to decorate our family's graves. We would go to Aunt Madge and Francis' house and pick the real thing.
Mother used tin cans wrapped in aluminum foil added some water and fresh flowers. We would make the rounds to Arcola, Mound, & Salisbury Cemeteries to show our respect to departed family members. At Mound Cemetery we would drive up the hill to see the Dog Monument.
Aunt Madge and Francis would make beauftiul arrangements in big baskets to place on the graves and also took flowers to church on Sundays.
