That's what Memorial Day was originally called. It was a time to decorate the graves of our fallen soldiers. Due to age and other circumstances, I've never served in the military. On each Memorial Day I think about the men and women who have given so much to keep our freedoms secure. I especially remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice of dying for our nation. I also feel quilt for not taking part in the military and wonder how my life might be different if I had.
God bless America and all those (and their families) who have and now protect us.
