« on: May 27, 2019, 12:00:20 AM »

Happy Memorial Day!  Today, let's enjoy our families, cookouts, libations and cigars too.  But let us not forget to remember the people who died while serving in our country's armed forces.

Morning All, Hot Coffee is ready.

On Monday, May 27th, many of us celebrate Memorial Day with a start-of-summer barbecue, beach trip, or town parade. But, no matter your plans, it’s important to remember the true meaning of the holiday. Really, it’s a day dedicated to honoring the fallen soldiers that have fought to protect our freedom. Because it’s not something that should be done only on a Monday in May, but every day. “Memorial Day: Celebrate, honor, remember.”

good morning Rick and Dave.
Memorial Day is not about picnics, bbq, or beaches.,it's about those who didn't make it home serving for our freedoms. most everyone have lost friends and/or family. I am grateful for my freedoms today. thank you.

You would have most certainly liked him as all who knew him did.
