Memorial Day

As we enter this Memorial Day weekend i ask each of you to please stop and give thanks to those families who have a love one who has paid the ultimate price for our freedom. I think many times we get caught up in this being the first long weekend of the summer. Enjoy this weekend but stop for a moment and give thanks to those brave men and women. This is not a weekend for us veterans. We have ours in November. If you see a person in service, I would encourage you to simply thank them for their service to our country.

Thumbs up

God bless America and our service men and woman, stop in at a local American Legion Post and shake the hand of the people who support our country and way of life. Thank you to all the service people on CO.

Every time I'm out and see a member of the armed forces I thank them for their service. Most of them are somewhat humbled by that, but everyone of them says Thank You.

Thank you for protecting our freedom, for making the ultimate sacrifice, and for proving us to be the home of the brave.

In loving memory of my best friend,my Brother...rest in peace.
