A Blessed Lord's Day to you and yours, Sandy!

A most fitting observance! I cannot be there physically, but will be in thought and prayer.

Nice....it is always good to hear there are some groups still honoring our troops/veterans.
Lots of involvement. Glad you will be there.

We thank you for your service to our country.
