Memorial Day 2007

I wanted to take a moment to put my thoughts down on paper about what Memorial Day means to me. Of course my family looks at this day with a special reverence with Eddie being in harms way, but regardless of our personal family situation, this day is special and that tends to get lost in all the hoopla. Frank Salvato of the New Media Journal has said all I wanted to say and then some in his brilliant piece titled “Remembering What Memorial Day Is For.” Please take a moment to share this article with your family; yeah, go ahead and print it off and read it to your family. And when the friends show up or you go to their house for the cookout, read the article to them. That can be your moment of reverence that Frank so eloquently calls for in his article.
