Some gave all... Memorial Day 2014

Do you know what it means to serve? Do you have a friend/family/relative who served in the Armed Forces? Believe it or not Memorial Day is not National BBQ weekend.  The holiday was designed to honor those who served, those we lost,  and those we will never forget.

We come from a long line of military involvement. My Mom's Grandfather served, her Dad served, her Uncles served, her first love served and continues to serve. Several relatives have served and lost their lives in battle. My Daddy's family all served, his Mom served, his Dad and Uncles served.

We thank our friends, family and hero's who have served our Country proudly. We remember the lost but never forgotten, we give Thanks to the families who sacrificed.

Being a military family is very difficult, who can explain why someone risks their life to fight for a country that hasn't fought very hard for them?

May God bless each of our veterans, our enlisted, our officers, and make this memorial day special.
