How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!
Memorial Day isn’t just about honoring veterans, its honoring those who lost their lives. Veterans had the fortune of coming home. For us, that’s a reminder of when we come home we still have a responsibility to serve. It’s a continuation of service that honors our country and those who fell defending it.
Who kept the faith and fought the fight; The glory theirs, the duty ours.
These fallen heroes represent the character of a nation who has a long history of patriotism and honor – and a nation who has fought many battles to keep our country free from threats of terror.
With the tears a Land hath shed. Their graves should ever be green.
I’m proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free.
On thy grave the rain shall fall from the eyes of a mighty nation!

I have long believed that sacrifice is the pinnacle of patriotism.
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.
It doesn’t take a hero to order men into battle. It takes a hero to be one of those men who goes into battle.
The legacy of heroes is the memory of a great name and the inheritance of a great example.
My heroes are those who risk their lives every day to protect our world and make it a better place – police, firefighters and members of our armed forces.
I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.
Decoration Day is the most beautiful of our national holidays…. The grim cannon have turned into palm branches, and the shell and shrapnel into peach blossoms.
Better than honor and glory, and History’s iron pen, Was the thought of duty done and the love of his fellow-men.
We shall pay any price, bear any burden, to assure the survival and the success of liberty.
