Memorial Day
May 28, 2012
Dear Friend,
Today, on Memorial Day, we honor the men and women who laid down their lives for our nation's most treasured and highest ideals: freedom, liberty and democracy.
As we honor their service to our nation, let us also remember the Americans who are serving our nation around the world today. Without the brave efforts of generations of soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, Merchant Marines, and Coast Guardsmen and their families, our country would not live so freely.
Let us honor the sacrifice of those who died defending our nation the best way we know how: by ensuring the mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, sons and daughters, and fellow soldiers they left behind receive the very best our nation can provide. And let us pray for peace - for the day when war is not a reality, but a far-distant memory.
Sincerely,
Mike Thompson
