On Memorial Day of 1982, President Ronald Reagan offered these words in honor of Patriots interred at Arlington National Cemetery: “I have no illusions about what little I can add now to the silent testimony of those who gave their lives willingly for their country. Words are even more feeble on this Memorial Day, for the sight before us is that of a strong and good nation that stands in silence and remembers those who were loved and who, in return, loved their countrymen enough to die for them. Yet, we must try to honor them not for their sakes alone, but for our own. And if words cannot repay the debt we owe these men, surely with our actions we must strive to keep faith with them and with the vision that led them to battle and to final sacrifice.”
In honor of all who gave some and some who gave all – have a great Memorial Day but let us all remember those whom this day of remembrance honors for we are the beneficiaries of the inheritance of Liberty they ensured with their lives, we humbly ask that each of you observe Memorial Day with reverence. Share with others the reason for the day.
Put out your flag – show your colors proudly!!!
