[The Mayor]

I Pledge Allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America
and to the Republic for which it stands,
one Nation under God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Evenin’ Mayor.

‘Twas a great Veteran’s Day in my neighborhood. When our pastor’s message is posted on the church website, I’ll send you a link.

Good morning to all the Finest.

Special day, yesterday ... today, too.

I watched the Vice-President at Arlington ... a beautiful ceremony, had me bawlin’.

Never so proud of my Country, never felt so much love and respect for those who defend Her, and the families who stand behind them.

[Kitty Mittens]

Praying for our Heroes who Keep us Protected and Safe. God Bless and Keep our Country Always!

~Thank You, Lord, for our Beloved America~
