How could you guys let me down like that? You know I need everlasting life!! No invitations, no reminders, what's up with that?

Quirky1,

Please clarify the title of this thread. English can be complex. Wiktionary lists 5 different definitions for the verb "to miss":

( transitive ) To fail to hit.
I missed the target.
( transitive ) To feel the absence of someone or something, sometimes with regret.
I miss you!
( transitive ) To fail to understand or have a shortcoming of perception.
miss the joke
( transitive ) To fail to attend.
Joe missed the meeting this morning.
( transitive ) To be late for something (a means of transportation, a deadline etc).
I missed the plane!

So, when you say, "I missed the memorial," do you mean:
1) I was going to throw rocks at the KH during the memorial, but I missed.
2) I regret that I was absent from the memorial.
3) I don't understand why they have the whole memorial thingy.
4) I failed to attend the memorial.
5) I was late for the memorial, so I had wine and crackers at home.

I actually wasn't even invited this year. Kind of nice not to have to turn it down and all that goes into. I ran into Witnesses and saw family members who are, nobody mentioned it. I think they finally get it

It's so nice to be out so far that you don't even know what day it is! I had no clue.... G reminded me last night at like 6 she was like 'hey it's memorial tonight want to go?' We both roared with laughter and went back to whatever we were doing... It's a good place to be...

I got my invite a couple of hours before it started.

It turned into a slanging match.

I rejected Jesus at home. Why waste the time to go to the Kingdumb Hell to reject Jesus--especially since Jesus is dead and never got resurrected?
