Happy Memorial Day!

Wishing everyone a Happy Memorial Day!
More significant than this just being an extended weekend - today is a day to remember those who have lost their lives defending our country.
My thoughts and prayers are with everyone mourning a loved one today.

Hope your Memorial Day was a good one.
My dad is an Air Force Chaplain and has seen so many of the fallen heroes in the hospitals in Iraq and Germany. Thanks for remembering the purpose of the holiday.

@alli - I had a quiet but good family weekend. I hope yours was good, too! I can’t imagine all that your Dad has seen as an Air Force Chaplain - I’m sure that can’t be an easy job. Continued thoughts for all of our fallen heroes.

So true…Good to see that photo opposed to a family grilling in their backyard with kids playing on a swing set or something.

@Carl - I’m glad you like the photo choice! I think it’s much more fitting than a backyard fun type of photo, as you say…
