Memorial day signals the entrance into summer and a day off from life's grind.
All across our country, family and friends gather for picnics and cook-outs, looking forward to apple pie and homemade potato salad. Kids frolic in the afternoon air and feel the cool grass bend beneath their feet. Parents relax in their lawn chairs savoring life's sweet blessings.
And all this freedom made possible by those like-minded individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice for something bigger than themselves.
I thank you.
