Many of us have heard that the "first" day of Summer falls on Memorial Day, and ends Labor Day. Some still think like that, and look forward to having a great summer. Nothing wrong with that on one level, but it is worth, at a higher level, remembering the reason why the holiday was created.
It is a day to honor those not here today, those who served our Country.
In one Home in the Community the family remembers the Father who served in the Navy during World War II, and landed in a lifeboat for 28 days. It is something where there has been few words, but the Man and the incident are: Remembered.
