Memorial Day 2013





Monday May 27, 2013. Today is Memorial day.

Memorial Day is observed on the last Monday of May. It was formally known as Decoration Day and commemorates all men and women, who have died in military service for the United States. Many people visit cemeteries and memorials on Memorial Day and it is traditionally seen as the start of the summer season.

Please take a moment and remeber those that gave their lives for our country and for our freedoms!

 And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
~Lee Greenwood


 We come, not to mourn our dead soldiers, but to praise them.  ~Francis A. Walker


I want to thank all those who have served and died for our country. Thank you goes to the families that have lost a loved one while they were serving.
