Memorial Day Thank-You

I know I am late in posting this as the day is almost over, but I just wanted to say a big thank-you to all of the Veterans who have served our country so faithfully. I am so quick to take for granted the freedom that we have in this country and forget that our freedom has not come without high cost. There are many men who have given their lives over the years to ensure the safety and prosperity that we enjoy today.

Both of my grandfathers, Donald Rex Hartness and Donald Sinclair Aigner, served in
World War 2. It is difficult, if not impossible, to imagine what our nation would be today were it not for their sacrifice and the sacrifice of thousands and thousands of brave men and women like them; men and women willing to give up their lives on behalf of our great country to defend us from our enemies.

So, THANK YOU to all of those who have given their lives to the point of death to provide for generations they did not yet know. And THANK YOU to those of you who are sacrificing time with your families and the comforts of home to protect our freedom today. Blessings to you. You have our support and our prayers.
