Memorial Day ~


It is the
VETERAN,
Not the Campus organizer
Who has give us freedom to assemble.

It is the
VETERAN,
not the lawyer,
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the
VETERAN,
not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.

If you can read this,
thank a teacher,
but thank a VETERAN
since you are reading this in English.

Please take a moment
to honor a veteran today. 
Remember . . . freedom isn't free.
May God Bless
this Land that I love.


ETERNAL REST GRANT THEM O LORD,
AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT
SHINE UPON THEM.

Hugs :)
Lauren
