Memorial Day at Home

This morning I read about people being mugged at the cemetary by masked persons wielding knives and cutting the purses from elderly women’s arms. No one chases the robbers. “How could I catch them?,” one man said.
They come to honor the dead and they bring a purse with a few dollars, a wallet with an ID, and photos of their loved ones, and photos of those they came to respect.
Memorial Day is a day to remember the dead. I guess we should remember them from the safety of our homes.
