Gone But Not Forgotten.
Honor the Fallen.

As you’re enjoying your day off school or work today…take a moment to remember why we celebrate this day. In case you don’t know:

Spend some time thinking about and saying thank you to those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom. For those who have given their lives so we can enjoy everything we have today. It’s more than just a day for cookouts and parties. It’s a day of remembrance and respect for those who deserve it most.

    So very true! Thanks Lindsay! So many times we forget the meaning of holidays and just focus on our cookout or having an extra day off!

    We celebrate but forget to remember. A great reminder that many – myself included – need.
