We Remember


We remember, your answer to your nation’s call
we remember, when so many of you gave your all
we remember, so many of you whose blood was shed
so the rest of us did not have to dread, a bomb at dawn
on our shores, terror in our streets,
trembling behind locked doors,
lest we open them to an enemy.


Our rights you secured with your life
Old Glory, flies freely this day for us
it was the price you paid for your fellowman
to live in freedom in this great land.


We remember, the price was far to costly
the price of war is never cheap
lives are spent as families weep, we remember
your valor on this day, your precious life was taken away.
Hale to Heroes of all past and current wars.


We Remember.

Thank you miss feather, we Remember...

A ragged little country girl
turned this Sailor's heart
He gave his all for our nation grand
his scars did not show
He gave his love to one and all
My Uncle Fran
YOU were very tall!
You'll Be In MY Heart
now and forever more..
