Memorial Day Observed - Honoring Our Nation’s Heroes
A Prayer For Peace - All Gave Some, Some Gave All

In Flanders Fields poem by John McCrae May 1915
We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies.

“…gather around their sacred remains and garland the passionless mounds above them with choicest flowers of springtime…let us in this solemn presence renew our pledges to aid and assist those whom they have left among us as sacred charges upon the Nation’s gratitude, — the soldier’s and sailor’s widow and orphan.”
-General John Logan, May 1868
