"With Memorial Day drawing near, it’s important to pause and pay tribute to the courageous individuals who have made profound sacrifices for our nation. Among  the many ways to express our gratitude and reverence is by adorning their resting places with beautiful flowers." 

This advice and a touching story about honoring a veteran's memory were shared recently on the Find a Grave blog. 

While at the blog, take a minute to look at updates to the Find a Grave (FG) website and to read other helpful tips. For example, a new feature in 2023 allows designation on the FG memorial as a veteran.

Memorial Day is the perfect time to make sure the graves of your loved ones are included in the FG online database and reflect complete information. It's easy to do and costs nothing. Search and create memorials at Findagrave.com.
