Please...

...let NOT the memory of those that have chosen to fight and die defending us fade with the passage of time.

Let NOT their sacrifices be without honor and recongnition.

Let NOT their families grieve alone.

Let us guard their final resting places with viligance, and the dignity that they deserve.

The "National Moment of Remembrance" encourages all Americans to pause, wherever they are, at 3 p.m. local time on Memorial Day for a moment of silence, to remember and honor those that have died in service to our nation.

Please, join me....in the strewing of flowers, decoration of a grave, or simply in prayer, for the many that have gone before us, and gave of themselves, on the alter of "Freedom",... the ultimate sacrifice.

Thank you, and God bless the United States of America.
