Have A Wonderful Memorial Day
Remember the sacrifice of all who made it possible.
Many lost their lives, to protect ours. I don't believe you had to lose your life in a war, to be forever changed by it. To all who have served, or are serving, God bless you!

It's easy to get caught up in the bbqing and beer guzzling and forget the true meaning beind the "holiday" ... Hope you had a relaxing, yet pensive weekend.

God bless those that have fallen for their Country and families.

It's easy to forget why we have the day off. Those men and women who have given so much for our freedoms are true heroes in every sense of the word.
Amen Baby Doll, Amen <3
God Bless & Keep All of our Brave Men & Women who did, who would, & who will give it their all for their Home, their Family & All of us. We live so free, so privileged & forever grateful.
You as well. What a nice tribute. :)

Ms A, what a moving tribute...many gracious thanks...if you don't mind sharing, who are
those young men in the photographs you posted?
The Ultimate Sacrifice. Poppy fields...a moment
of silent prayer to not only those lost or forever wounded but also their loved ones, families, and the wide circle who continue to suffer silently their losses year after year...they, too, are heroes.
i cant keep my eyes of your page mmm
Zertuzzi, uh, thanks... I think?
Very nice tribute. We are indeed all affected by war. I have enjoyed reading your archives. Some really good posts.
NCmountainwoman, thank you. Sorry for drooling on your blog. I tried hard to wipe up after myself. Thank you for dropping by!
Indeed! Love your photos. Hope you had a wonderful weekend, Missy.
Before I moved, they had a lovely ceremony each Memorial Day in the local cemetery. The high school band played an appropriate piece of music and the vets who've died during the previous year were honored. It was quite moving.
I don't have vets in my family, but nonetheless, it's important to me.
People are slowly forgetting Memorial Day, a DAY to remember.
Thank you for reminding us this is not just a day to get your yard work done.
Hi there!

Hope you are having a good week!
