Memorial Day


Memorial Day
We honor those brave men and women who serve (and have served) in the military.  We say thank you for all your work and dedication to our great country.  As we see the Statue of Liberty, we say thank you to those who protect our freedoms.

The second significance of Memorial Day for many families: it is a pilgrimage to the cemetery to place flowers on the graves of departed loved ones.  Peggy, Kim & I visited the cemetery where our loved ones were laid to rest.  It made us feel good to place fresh flowers at the gravesite; we honored and remembered those who contributed so much to our lives.
