Don't forget about a person in society (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

remember

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'don't forget' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'about a person in society' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'about' could be 're' ('re' means regarding or about) and 're' is present in the answer.
'person' could be 'member' (member is a kind of person) and 'member' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for remember that I've seen before include "Recal, recollect" , "Commemorate" , "Don't forget" , "Recall to mind" , "Recall from memory" .)
