A ‘thank you’ never
seems enough to say. Your sacrifices bless me today, and will continue to bless
me and many others forever. ~ Katy Lee
Today, I’m remembering
with heartfelt gratitude our
military heroes who
paid the ultimate sacrifice so this great
country of ours could
remain "the land of the free and the home
of the brave."
Wishing abundant
blessings to our entire blog community on this
special day of
commemoration and sending a huge shout out to all
those in uniform.
Thank you for your service to our country. God
bless you and God
bless the USA! ~ Debby Giusti
Memorial Day is a time
we take to honor and remember the people who have died in service of our
country. I want to thank every one who has but especially my brother, father
and father-in-law. You all are special to me. Without our veterans, we would
not have the freedom we have in the United States. Thank you. ~ Margaret Daley
I am ever
grateful to those who gave their lives for our freedom. May we never forget
their sacrifice. ~ Louise M.

God bless our country
and all who serve. Freedom is paid for with the price of blood and I hope
we never forget the sacrifice our armed service and their families have paid so
that we can live free. ~ Leigh Bale
Many
blessings to our military, both past and present, especially those who lost

it is. ~ Deb
Kastner

As we remember our
loved ones who are no longer with us, let us not forget that we are immensely

lives on the line to maintain our safety and freedom. Be they military, law
enforcement, firemen or emergency personnel, may their sacrifices never be
forgotten. ~ Arlene James

Perhaps it's due to our recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery, but this year, I'm touched even more deeply by the sacrifice of so many. I am proud to be a citizen of this great country, and I am so grateful that brave men and women continue to put country first as they serve our nation. May God bless our military...and may God bless the USA!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same. I am so grateful for all those who serve!
DeleteThank you from the bottom of my heart. I lived through the Vietnam War protests and lost a good friend to that war. I hated to see how the soldiers were treated when they came home from the war. I'm so glad we now understand how valuable our soldiers' service is to this country and others.
ReplyDeleteSo true, Margaret!
DeleteMy dad served in Vietnam and told us how charged the people at airports were when he was coming home. Makes me sad. I am very thankful for everyone in our armed forces.
DeleteJill, please thank your father for his service to our country.
DeleteMy mom and dad met and married during WW2 when my dad, military police, escorted POWs by train, and had a stop in Omaha.
ReplyDeleteI am very thankful four our armed services.
