John, I hope that you have been able to spend some time this holiday weekend with your friends and your family, since our lives are made meaningful by those we hold dear. On this Memorial Day, I also hope you will join me in a moment of reflection for those who were willing to serve and make the final sacrifice to defend our freedom. |
Throughout our history, our fellow citizens have been willing to give everything so others may live in a nation where faith, freedom, and justice prevail. Today, we honor their loss as a reminder of the true cost of freedom. Let us reflect upon their selfless sacrifice and show our gratitude by upholding the principles of individual liberty that they fought to protect. |
