Webmaster's MEMORIAL DAY 2020 Tribute |
As
we
approach
Memorial
Day
2020
we
are
challenged
by
the
extraordinary
circumstances
in
the
battle
with
the
COVID-19
virus.
Many
of
us
will
be
staying
in
place
following
the
guidance
of
our
medical
experts.
However,
let
us
remember
the
meaning
of
Memorial
Day
and
the
souls
lost
in
other
battlefield
battles
which
are
too
many
to
mention.
The
Day
is
to
reflect
on
those
who
made
the
ultimate
sacrifice
in
the
service
of
our
country
and
in
the
name
of
freedom.
As I
have
in
past
years
I
ask
you
to
stop,
even
for
a
brief
moment,
during
this
day
and
pay
homage
to
those
that
cannot
be
with
us
or
their
families.
For
me,
special
thought
goes
to
the
multitude
of
names
on
the
Vietnam
War
Memorial
in
Washington
D.C.
Forever
am I
indebted
to
those
brave
men
and
women
whose
actions
and
ultimate
sacrifice
paved
the
road
for
my
safe
return
home.
Each
name
has
life
and
breathes
spiritually.
In
the
past
I
posted
the
poem
I
wrote
a
few
years
back
reflecting
on
that
wall
and
its
names.
This
year
I
have
done
something
different
as
my
tribute
to
all
those
that
gave
all.
