Dear John,

This weekend remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Honor and Sacrifice: A Memorial Day Tribute

In fields where courage bloomed like flowers,

And heroes faced their darkest hours,

We honor those who bravely fought,

With values deep, with lessons taught.

The spiritual principles they chose to heed,

Unleashed their potential, in word and deed.

For in their hearts, a fire burned bright,

A guiding star through the longest night.

Integrity, their finest tool,

A beacon strong, a steadfast rule.

When faced with fear, they stood their ground,

With trust as strong as oak, profound.

For trust is born where truth abides,

In sacrifice, where honor resides.

They showed us how to stand and fight,

With spirit sound, with hearts alight.

Choosing right, their future clear,

Their legacy, we hold so dear.

For in their steps, we find our way,

To honor them this Memorial Day.

In silent reverence, we now stand,

Grateful hearts in this free land.

For those who gave, we humbly bow,

And pledge to live with honor now.

In memory of the brave and true,

We walk the path they showed us through.

Choose to Win!

Tom
