The term "Memento Mori" is a classic latin phrase that translates to "remember that you will die", however the meaning has become less morbid over time, and has developed as a tradition in the military of connecting the living with the dead. In our interpretation, it means to be thankful for every moment that you're still alive, remember our friends that have passed on, and a reminder not to waste the years we've been given, that were taken from them. To make them proud with our contributions, creations, actions, and the stories that we tell about them. The design with the outstretched hands was made to represent forgiveness, reverence, hope, and respect. The spiritual connection between the two worlds.
