Memorial Day weekend has always been spent in the sun, near water, the grill fired up and family all around.  The kids run, play and smile. It’s a magical feel in the air knowing that summer is near. But there is more to Memorial Day. It’s honoring so many that have given their all to each and every one of us to experience this weekend with each passing year. So take a moment out of your amazing weekend celebrations, say a quiet thank you, say a quiet prayer and honor them.

They are dead; but they live in each Patriot’s breast,
And their names are engraven on honor’s bright crest.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
