Hope everyone is having a great Memorial Day!
Of course, it can be a somber moment, as we take time to remember those loved ones who have passed before us, and to honor those in the military who make possible the freedoms we enjoy every day!
When I was a kid, this holiday was a day-long event, as we traveled to rural cemeteries to place flowers on the graves of loved ones. My Uncle Claude would always plant a small flag on the graves of the veterans in our family. We'd stop along the way, enjoy a picnic lunch, and then continue the caravan.
Even if you don't manage to make a trip to the cemetery, take some time today to remember those who walked the road before us. The path is a lot easier for you and me, thanks to them.
