memorial-day sacrifice giving
The United States and the freedom for which it stands, the freedom for which they died, must endure and prosper. Their lives remind us that freedom is not bought cheaply.

I have never been able to think of the day as one of mourning; I have never quite been able to feel that half-masted flags were appropriate on Decoration Day.

We honor them in a joyous, thankful, triumphant commemoration of what they did. Benjamin Harrison

It is not good enough to know why we are oppressed and by whom. We must join the struggle for what is right and just.
