Observing Memorial Day
"Memorial Day this year is especially important as we are reminded almost daily of the great sacrifices that men and women of the Armed Services make to defend our way of life." -Former Congressman Robin Hayes
It is my hope that we all take time to remember those we've lost while in the service of this great country. The freedoms we enjoy today are the direct results of the men and women who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice fighting for America and the values that we share.
Especially important to remember is the 60th Anniversary of the Korean War Armistice Agreement. During this three year war the United States lost over 50,000 brave soldiers, who perished while fighting for South Korea's freedom.
