Memorial Day




"Let us make a vow to  our dead. Let us show them by our actions that we understand what they died for. Strengthened by their courage, heartened by their valor, and borne by their memory, let us continue to stand for the ideals for which they lived and died."
Ronald Reagan

Beautiful post honoring our many brave heroes, Marcie...
PBS had an outstanding tribute that aired last night. Hopefully it will be showing today..it is just wonderful, right there in DC,
Every man and woman who has served or is currently needs to be shown and told how much they mean to us, everyday.
God Bless America!

Thanks for letting me know that my video wasn't in my post..it is now if you would like to go back and view it...bring a tissue.

Love,
Lynn♥
