Remembering fallen heroes this Memorial Day

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

I believe we all want to have real heroes in our lives. Our military men and women are distinct heroes we call all point to. It's always sad when those we know pass between our world and the next, but it's also a source of pride to name them among the heroes of our military services. These people have spent their lives in a high calling: defending the nation they serve, to protect all the people therein even if the heroes don't even know them. There's a reality of dedication and honor that we who have never served won't comprehend. These heroes have earned our respect and remembrance. I urge you to take time today to think about them, offer up prayers for their families, and to keep them in mind as you celebrate.

Happy Memorial Day!
