Memorial Day. A day to be so grateful to our servicemen and to their families, those serving now and also those who have served in all branches of the armed forces.

I am so grateful to be married to a Korean War veteran and to have three brothers who served our country, one in Vietnam.

I am, in my Mother's heart so proud of my Bart for having served in the Army for 10 years. He retired on a disability two years ago after working his way through the ranks and school to become an officer in the Army. He retired as a Lieutenant. Quite an accomplishment. What a guy.

God keep them all safe and America safe. Keep us always eager and idealistic. Let us keep striving for peace in this world. Let us all, all over the world stive to be sure that no child ever goes to bed or wakes us afraid or hungry.

Love and Slainte!

Mary
