Memorial Day

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service. In recent years it has become a day to remember all those who have served our country, whether they were killed serving or are still living.

My family has had several members serve proudly in the military service.



Betty Saucier

My Aunt Betty, my Mom's youngest sister served in the Navy.

Charles Saucier

My uncle Charlie, my Mom's youngest brother, made the Navy his life time career.

Mom's brother, my uncle Bud ,was also in the military.
 She had another brother Bernard who made the military his life time career too.
