I HOPE THAT EACH ONE OF YOU WILL JOIN ME IN REMEMBERING OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN UNIFORM. ON THIS LONG WEEKEND PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO REFLECT ON THE MANY SERVICEMEN AND WOMEN SERVING IN THE ARMED FORCES OF OUR NATION. WE REMEMBER THOSE THAT SERVE NOW AND IN THE PAST. MANY OF YOUR FATHERS WERE IN THE SERVICE, MANY OF YOU DID AS WELL, SOME OF YOUR CHILDREN NOW SERVE. WE MUST REMEMBER THOSE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES SO THAT WE MIGHT CONTINUE TO ENJOY OUR FREEDOM. WE ASK FOR THE SAFE AND HONORABLE RETURN OF THOSE STILL IN HARMS WAY AND THE SPEEDY RECOVERY OF THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN WOUNDED.
ON THIS MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND, PLEASE TAKE TIME TO REMEMBER THEM ALL. MAY GOD BLESS THEM ALL AND KEEP THEM SAFE. THANK YOU.
