I can not even begin to thank the countless brave soldiers and support personal that suffered and gave their all, and those currently serving in the armed forces today,so Americans can live in the life style we do today. It is unfortunate that all to often in our modern day world, the real meaning of Memorial Day is forgotten.

I had an opportunity a few years ago to talk to a young man at a Memorial Day gathering in town. I asked him what Memorial Day meant to him. He said it was a free day off from work. I was shocked. So I set him straight. Do not forget the meaning of this special day. It is not just a four day weekend or some extra overtime.

We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies.[/align]

Bless all of them that are and have served. Keep them in your heart and your thoughts today.
