Some of your memos might pertain to your contacts. Once you've written a memo, select Edit > Select All > Copy. Go to Contacts, open the entry you want, and tap Record > Attach Note. Then select Edit > Paste. Keep in mind that notes don't hold as much info as memos, so there are limits to how much you can include.
