Memorial Day 2019

“No duty is more urgent than that of returning thanks.” "May we never forget freedom isn't free." "A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself."
Michael Stillwell, Joseph Campbelll

A memorial day is a good thing to commemorate and be thankful for those who have died for our freedom as well as pray for the safety of our service people. I hope you had a meaningful memorial day.
