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.
