For many of us, Memorial Day is just a day off from work or school, but it also is a solemn day for those of us who served their country and lost our brothers and sisters in uniform on the battlefield. It is a day when we remember the sacrifices made by these heroes so we as a nation can always live in peace.
So as you go about your day off on Memorial Day on Monday, put out your flag, attend a commemorative ceremony, place flags in our local cemeteries on the graves of those who served or wear the traditional poppy. Let's honor the memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
They were the sons daughters, husbands, wives, grandchildren and grandparents who are and will continually be missed by their loved ones.
Memorial Day is exclusively for honoring those who died serving our nation during wartime.
Sacrifice is meaningless without remembrance.
