Memorial Day Remembered

REMEMBERING

~Forever Thankful~

Memorial Day, originally called Decoration Day, is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service.

All we have of freedom,

All we use or know,

This are fathers bought for us

Long, long ago.

~Rudyard Kipling~

Deepest Honor to all who have served for our countries freedom, for those that have fallen and the sacrifices of their families.  We will all cherish the wonderful memories of our dear love ones and their great sacrifice!  

 I truley give the PURPLE HEART to all that serve for our country.

Purple Heart

Each Purple Heart shall always be A part of freedom’s history Hold deep inside a fervent pride For all who gave, the brave who died They showed their best for liberty They stood for us with certainty Their wound of war, their Purple Heart Each dared to care and do their part Some bore a wound which took their life While others lived past war’s honed knife True patriots, they faced their call To keep our nation strong for all Deep scars of war are carried by Those who return, and those who cry Pray for the brave, their loved ones too Thank God for heroes - all of you by Roger Robicheau

The Unknown Soldier You need not ever know my name This unknown soldier seeks no fame I'm here to bring out thought from you May your heart see more than your view America, we marched with pride We gave our life, for you we died How well we knew the time might come When life could sound that final drum Please think of us as life moves on We tried so hard till that last dawn Do let our spirit fill the land Pass treasured freedom, hand to hand God blessed this country with such love Hold in your heart, abundance of And when you stand before my grave Think not of one, but each who gave

They Keep Us Free

In time of need their will is sure American, their freedom pure Protect our life and liberty Unselfishly, they keep us free Each soldier knows what is at stake The risk is grave, there’s no mistake With pride they serve our country strong They face each foe to come along Remember them while in your home Or where you choose to freely roam Don’t take for granted what you see Some left this life, so it could be To God I urge you all to pray For soldier’s brave, to face each day We should be thankful, one and all For those who march to meet each call
