Today is the last Monday of May, so that means it is Memorial Day.  Many people consider this to be the unofficial start of summer.  There will be many activities today.  But the most important activities will be those which remember those who died in service to this great country.  Many men and women have fought and died for our freedom.  Today is their day – a day to remember them.

Our family will be part of the activities here in Eldred.  There is a parade and then a Memorial Day service following.  I encourage you to find something similar in your area so that you can remember those who died in service to their country.
