nice sentiments, but Memorial Day is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. Period.

“but Memorial Day is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation’s service. Period.”

I would have to disagree. Veterans who are no longer with us, like the over 1000 WW II Veterans that pass away every single day now. They deserve to be remembered on this special Day. And we all should say a prayer for the families touched by the current war and for those loosing family members from wars long ago.

They ARE nice sentiments, aren’t they?

I’m one little girl who’s happy HER Daddy came home. I’m thankful that God spared him and so many others. We DO honor our fallen on this day...
