 FYI: Decoration Day was observed on May 30th of each year, originally to decorate the graves of Civil War soldiers.  It eventually changed into Memorial Day which now is always a Monday at the end of May.

Here is a Vic and Sade OTR show with the topic: Decoration Day

Nobody gets it, Vic, not even your own family.

And that is true of Vic and Sade as a whole, many people don't get it.  It's my favorite show.
