On this Memorial Day take a few moments to reflect on what this day means, to observe the day and be mindful of the sacrifices of others and enjoy the freedoms they bought for us.
All Americans should understand the price of freedom and appreciate the importance of honoring our nation’s service members who have died in battle.
We should never grow complacent about the sacrifice of those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom.
As we reflect on the true cost of liberty, visit a memorial, fly the flag, keep the tradition of observance alive. Always thank a veteran or active military person.
Thank you, Maryln Brown

If there is a holiday that’s meaning is almost totally lost, in my opinion it is Memorial Day. I appreciate your comments and wish we had more folks who think as you. Would that we could for one day each year, look to the past and learn for the future.
