I also want to touch on the importance of Memorial Day and that is for honoring and mourning the U.S. Military personnel who died while serviced in the United States Armed Forces. As a military wife we do not lose sight of the importance and observance. My gratitude to those who served are serving and have made the ultimate sacrifice.
