Memorial Day 2018

On this Memorial Day remembering those who gave their lives for our country to preserve our freedom.

Norman Rockwell painted these to represent:

Freedom of Speech


Freedom to Worship


Freedom from Want


Freedom from Fear.


And here's the Statue of Liberty (a replica) in France in a traffic circle at Colmar, France where the sculptor came from.  In NYC it represents a welcome to all who want to come here to enjoy our freedoms.

    It is far too easy to forget that behind daily life there are people who served and who currently serve. Memorial Day is a nudge to remember and to give thanks.
