Memorial Day

It is wonderful to live in a country where we, the citizens, enjoy so many freedoms.  But let us not forget the sacrifices made by the men and women who we call veterans.
Our founding fathers were astute men who created a document which has directed our country since its founding:  the Constitution.  The first ten amendments know as “The Bill of Rights,” does not exist because they are written on paper.  Rather, it is through the sacrifices made by the American veteran.
Let us not forget the meaning and traditions of Memorial Day.  Raise the flag, salute the flag, and honor the lives given so that our flag may continue to fly.
May God continue to guide us and watch over us.
