Our town was honoring all their past and present day Vets. It was such an emotional moment to see my 88 year old dad being escorted to the stage by my two sons, his grandsons, in their uniforms all being honored. My dad has since past but I see the picture everyday on my mantle.<br />Carol L<br />Lucky4750 (at) aol (dot) comCarol L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05291123842810883524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-86044013288232639092016-06-01T14:37:05.664-04:002016-06-01T14:37:05.664-04:00I don't have any specific Memorial Day memorie...I don't have any specific Memorial Day memories.jmcgaughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932827218529724266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-31139854565965847732016-05-31T23:03:10.935-04:002016-05-31T23:03:10.935-04:00When I was in middle school, I happened to be on a...When I was in middle school, I happened to be on a school trip to Washington DC over Memorial Day.

Then my brother joined the military and I got a glimpse of what the sacrifice really means for the men and women who serve and their loved ones. Now Memorial Day is truly a day to remember and thank those who protect our freedom.Alexia Chantelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03048542370172786608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-78357692856929659332016-05-30T23:00:00.014-04:002016-05-30T23:00:00.014-04:00Today we did double duty for Memorial Day.

This morning we represented the Red Cross and canteened ( water, coffee, donuts, blood pressure checks) the ceremony At Mountain Home National Cemetery in TN. Lovely program and talk from the Director Of National Cemeteries. At 6 this evening we served water, coffee, and cake after the ceremony at the Johnson City/Washington County, TN Veterans Memorial. We are honored to participate in these events held to remember those who have fallen in defense of our country.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-26408268964587081452016-05-30T20:47:24.614-04:002016-05-30T20:47:24.614-04:00The Memorial Day Parade is always a fun event in o...The Memorial Day Parade is always a fun event in our town.BookLadynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-28098303997183221522016-05-30T19:08:32.773-04:002016-05-30T19:08:32.773-04:00We celebrate Memorial Day as a family, and offer p...We celebrate Memorial Day as a family, and offer peace and safety in our prayers for all of our military men and women, especially those that have given their lives for our freedom.Diane D - Floridahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09257503725180545601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-22393623938220944362016-05-30T18:42:32.761-04:002016-05-30T18:42:32.761-04:00My daughter is in 11th grade & has marched in ...My daughter is in 11th grade & has marched in the parade every year since kindergarten, other than 2 years that rained (including this year.)
