5/29/2022 This is Memorial Day weekend and for me it is an amazing day as I think about all those who gave the “ultimate sacrifice”. They gave all their tomorrows, time with their families, the ability to have a family and all they could have achieved. The loss for them is a loss for us all as we are lessened by all they could have accomplished.

There is an old saying, “old men send young men off to die”. I wonder how many wars there would be if the top ten politicians or other power people had to fight until the last man standing was the winner? But wars will continue and now men and women will give their all and Gold Star families will grieve their loss.
