In honor of Memorial Day today, I wanted to post special mini-tribute to our veterans who have served or are serving. Among them are my Dad, both Grandpas, two brother-in-laws, and a host of friends and extended family. Thank you!
You can send a mini-tribute of your own to your favorite veteran, by name, at www.isAbsolutelyRemarkable.com.
P.S. It is awesome to see the number of mini-tributes that you have been sending. They make fun congratulations notes, birthday e-cards, and “just because” encourgements…and they are FREE! Send one today.

Memorial Day Sonnet
If Liberty means anything to me,
I will remember what my freedom cost,
By those who gave their all to keep me free,
Whose lives were sacrificed, but never lost.
I will remind myself of what they did,
And keep them dearly cherished in my heart;
Their honor never from me shall be hid
And I will know they always did their part
To save our nation and its people here,
To pledge their lives in defense of our ways,
To show that freedom always outlives fear,
And sacrifice is hallowed all our days.
If Liberty means anything to me,
I will remember those who kept me free.
