Happy Memorial Day, Alaska!
Memorial Day is more than picnics, fishing, and time out on the water with friends and family, it’s a time to remember our fallen heroes and those that have proudly served in the military.
As you celebrate Memorial Day, it’s important to remember the many sacrifices of our brave men and women in uniform – those that fell during conflict and those that were wounded. We owe them a great big thank you!
I hope you and your families have a safe and wonderful time in each other’s company, but please remember this celebration is about those that served in the military, those that sacrificed – the ultimate sacrifice, those that fought to protect our freedoms.
God bless you and God bless our military men and women who have served this great nation in the past, in the present, and in the future.
