On Memorial Day and every day, let's not forget that we still have thousands of service men and women overseas sacrificing so much for our country.  And, let's not forget their families that are sacrificing so much, too.

So, until everyone comes home, please reach out to "the people in your neighborhood" who have loved ones serving and let them know how much you appreciate...
