Memorial Day

A good friend recently sent me these words and photograph. They are worth
sharing and reflecting upon....

For the last couple of years I have sent out a selected image on Veterans
Day and Memorial Day to honor all those who have served. The attached image
was taken this month on the beach adjacent to the famous Santa Monica Pier.
This Sunday-only display of crosses and caskets is reverently hosted by a
group of LA Vietnam Veterans and has become known as Arlington West. I hope
you will pause Monday to quietly honor the countless thousands of men and
women who since 1776 have put their lives and futures on the line to further
our American democracy.
