Memorial Day is a day to honor those who have given their lives in service to our nation. It is a time to offer our respect and gratitude to those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Perhaps the debt can never be repaid, but we can remember the sacrifice that they made for us and for the United States of America.
My gratitude to the families who lost their loved ones and have to cope with life without them. You, too, have paid a high price for the liberty and security we enjoy.
In a time when so many of our military are serving in dangerous environments, thoughts also go out to them for the sacrifice that they are making on our behalf.
We are truly fortunate to live in “the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
