Good morning Lauren, I did just that Sunday morning. We were at the restaurant with our group of friends as usual and when I went to leave I noticed an elderly gentleman sitting with what I assumed his wife. He was dressed up in his veteran attires and I went over to thank him for all he did for us and our country. He was so very appreciative of my gesture and he gave me a warm reception and held my hand in gratitude.
I wish everyone else would have followed my lead but nobody did. It was just a small gesture but it was so meaningful to him. I'm sure Remembrance Day fills him with a lot of sad memories.
I commend you about your patriotism. You're so special. HUgs, Julia
