Memorial Day; today we honor our fallen

Posted 26 May 2008 in military, patriotism, victory, war


I hope you all enjoy your long weekend, but please take a few moments to reflect on the reason for Memorial Day. We honor and are truly thankful for all those who selflessly gave their lives or health in service of our great nation, and we treasure the precious gift of freedom that their valor has purchased at such high cost. We owe them an eternal debt of gratitude.

“Let no vandalism of avarice or neglect, no ravages of time, testify to the present or to the coming generations, that we have forgotten, as a people, the cost of a free and undivided Republic.” ~John A. Logan
